Sculptor Asakura Fumio (Artist name Kōso 1883-1964) designed this atmospheric house himself. It combined his original Japanese home and garden with a large studio that incorporated vaulted ceilings, a 'sunrise room' and a rooftop garden with wonderful neighbourhood views. It's now a reverential museum with many artist's signature realist works, mostly of people and cats, on display. This is a wonderful place to stroll and contemplate the meaning of life. You must remove footwear before entering the museum, but cannot go barefoot, so you must wear socks.
Asakura Museum of Sculpture or Asakura Choso Museum is an art museum in Tokyo, Japan, that showcases the sculptures and life work of Fumio Asakura (1883–1965). It is located in the Yanaka neighborhood of Taitō ward. The museum opened in 1967 after Asakura's death.
