This is an architectural field debut work by Tadao Ando who became a worldwide architect.
The scale of the plan has been following the traditional town house, close to the outside world and provide to an open courtyard inside. This work has overcome a narrow concept of modern architecture , functionalism and rationality so far, in terms of planning and spirituality. We have found a possibility of high-quality construction with exposed concrete representation.
