I know what we're missing: more telephones.

Some of these are imposters; they're not actually branded as NTT.

And in the same spirit as @janamarie, today I visited the International Conference Centre in Kyoto to appreciate the fascinating "metabolistic" architecture. 

The home of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, but its cuboid cousin in Tokyo is more famous: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyoto_International_Conference_Center

It's set in a lovely and extensive park, which was fun to explore.
