A Japanese mother and daughter dream of an art museum nestled in a mountain nature preserve. They hire I.M. Pei. Navigating strict codes—a 40-foot height limit, a sloped roof—they create a masterpiece. A stunning bridge leads to an entry tunnel. Post-construction, earth covers and reforests the structure, making it blend seamlessly into the landscape. Pei expresses profound gratitude for being part of the visionary, earth-honoring project.
