Magyar Ando was raised in Japan where the religion

culture and language in mind while he travels

Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Fort Worth,
Tagalog he believes that architecture can change Texas

place or a change of the identity of that place.
Winaray
According to Werner Blaser, "Good buildings
中文
Edit links by Tadao Ando create memorable identity and
therefore publicity, which in turn attracts the
public and promotes market penetration".[6]
The simplicity of his architecture emphasizes

the concept of sensation and physical
experiences, mainly influenced by the
Japanese culture. The religious term Zen,
focuses on the concept of simplicity and Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, showing the
restaurant
restaurant
concentrates on inner feeling rather than
outward appearance. Zen influences vividly
show in Ando’s work and became its
distinguishing mark. In order to practice the
idea of simplicity, Ando's architecture is mostly
constructed with concrete, providing a sense
of cleanliness and weightlessness at the same
time. Due to the simplicity of the exterior,
construction, and organization of the space
are relatively potential in order to represent
the aesthetic of sensation.
Besides Japanese religious architecture, Ando

has also designed Christian churches, such
as the Church of the Light (1989) and the
Church in Tarumi (1993). Although Japanese
and Christian churches display distinct
characteristics, Ando treats them in a similar
way. He believes there should be no
difference in designing religious architecture
and houses. As he explains,
Galleria Akka, Osaka, 1988
We do not need to differentiate
one from the other. Dwelling in a
house is not only a functional
issue, but also a spiritual one.
The house is the locus of mind
(kokoro), and the mind is the
locus of god. Dwelling in a house
is a search for the mind (kokoro)
as the locus of god, just as one
goes to church to search for god.
An important role of the church is
to enhance this sense of the
spiritual. In a spiritual place,
people find peace in their mind
(kokoro), as in their homeland.[7]
Besides speaking of the spirit of architecture, Ando also emphasises the association between
nature and architecture. He intends for people to easily experience the spirit and beauty of nature
through architecture. He believes architecture is responsible for performing the attitude of the site
and makes it visible. This not only represents his theory of the role of architecture in society but
also shows why he spends so much time studying architecture from physical experience.
In 1995, Ando won the Pritzker Prize for architecture, considered the highest distinction in the
field.[2] He donated the $100,000 prize money to the orphans of the 1995 Kobe earthquake.[8]
Buildings and works [edit]

Tadao Ando's body of work is known for the creative use of
natural light and for structures that follow natural forms of
the landscape, rather than disturbing the landscape by
making it conform to the constructed space of a building.
Ando's buildings are often characterized by complex three-
dimensional circulation paths. These paths weave in
between interior and exterior spaces formed both inside
large-scale geometric shapes and in the spaces between
them.
His "Row House in Sumiyoshi" (Azuma House, 住吉の長屋),

a small two-story, cast-in-place concrete house completed
in 1976, is an early work which began to show elements of
his characteristic style. It consists of three equal
rectangular volumes: two enclosed volumes of interior
spaces separated by an open courtyard. The courtyard's
Hyogo Prefectural Museum of Art, position between the two interior volumes becomes an
Kobe
integral part of the house's circulation system. The house
is famous for the contrast between appearance and spatial
organization which allow people to experience the richness of the space within the geometry.
Ando's housing complex at Rokko, just outside Kobe, is a complex warren of terraces and
balconies, atriums and shafts. The designs for Rokko Housing One (1983) and for Rokko Housing
Two (1993) illustrate a range of issues in traditional architectural vocabulary—the interplay of solid
and void, the alternatives of open and closed, the contrasts of light and darkness. More
significantly, Ando's noteworthy engineering achievement in these clustered buildings is site
specific—the structures survived undamaged after the Great Hanshin Earthquake of 1995.[9] New
York Times architectural critic Paul Goldberger argues that,
Ando is right in the Japanese tradition: spareness has always been a part of
Japanese architecture, at least since the 16th century; [and] it is not without reason
that Frank Lloyd Wright more freely admitted to the influences of Japanese
architecture than of anything American."[9]
Like Wright's Imperial Hotel in Tokyo Second Imperial Hotel 1923-1968, which did survive the Great
Kanto Earthquake of 1923, site specific decision-making, anticipates seismic activity in several of
Ando's Hyōgo-Awaji buildings.[10]
