Ando by Philip Jodidio

Ando by Philip Jodidio

Tadao Ando is the only architect to have won the discipline's four most prestigious prizes: the Pritzker, Carlsberg, Praemium Imperiale, and Kyoto Prize. This book shows how, combining influences from Japanese tradition with the best of Modernism, Ando has developed a completely unique building aesthetic.

"In architecture, there is a part that is the result of logical reasoning and a part that is created through the sensesThere is always a point where they clash. I don't think architecture can be created without that collision." -Tadao Ando"
