La ou je vis (2)


Have you heard of Tadao Ando 安藤忠雄? Probably not, but he has built museums, places of worship and apartment complexes around the world. If you want to know more about him and his work, check this page www.designboom.com/eng/interview/ando.html
T.A. about his work "In all my works, light is an important controlling factor, I create enclosed spaces mainly by means of thick concrete walls. The primary reason is to create a place for the individual, a zone for oneself within society. When the external factors of a city's environment require the wall to be without openings, the interior must be especially full and satisfying." 

I happen to live in one of his building ^^!
