| Description: |
Combining influences from Japanese tradition with the best of Modernism, Ando has developed a completely unique building aesthetic that makes use of concrete, wood, water, light, space, and nature in a way that has never been witnessed in architecture. This book presents the illustrious career of the only architect ever to have won the discipline's four most prestigious prizes. 3-8228-2164-0$125.00 / Taschen America LLC |
| Synopsis: |
The most complete and comprehensive collection of residential projects from the world's most internationally recognized and renowned architect. Though prolific in civic and commercial work, Tadao Ando first gained recognition for his residential projects, which were constructed solidly of concrete but ingeniously imbued with light and air. This exhaustive study is a complete catalog of all his residential work to date, including two new homes just finished in 2013. This volume features unseen and unpublished works presented through lavish and striking color photographs as well as detailed architectural drawings and plans of over thirty years of Ando's residential work, from the Sumiyoshi Row House in 1975 to the current houses for global design connoisseurs and art collectors. |
