Tadao Ando
Tadao Ando – Design Philosophy
• Geometric purity of form and space, intersect together making a
statement.
• Mies was the architect of the context, seeking always to fit buildings and
volumes in the line of landscape, without destroying, without creating
any discordant tensions.
• His works are imbued with great clarity, clarity of lines and clarity of light.
• The exterior is always an extension of the Interior and walls are not a limit
but an opening.
• Thoroughness of geometry -
but not rigidity, harmony of
proportions, precision, play of
reflections and light
characterize his architecture.
