The original design won by the award winning architect Zaha Hadid in 2012 was scaled back and eventually replaced by the more budget friendly version by the equally prestigious architect Kengo Kuma. Reasons given by Japan government as the project owner were the inevitably escalating cost to build the exceptional design using the unconventional construction technology.</p>}, journal={International Journal of Building, Urban, Interior and Landscape Technology (BUILT)}, author={Boonyanan, Archan}, year={2015}, month={Dec.}, pages={73–76} }
