Tadao Ando Transcending Oppositions

This weighty monograph is the culmination of the cooperation between architect Tadao Ando and Oris, a Croatian publishing house, who together have built a respectful relationship since a first interview about ten years ago, one that has led to the publication of many of his projects around the world. Now all of these projects and writings are brought together for the first time in this book, a portrait of uncompromising dedication to architecture and openness to cultural exchange. It is divided in four sections: architecture and nature, urban conditions, dwelling, and cross-cultural dialogues. The book includes an introduction by Juhani Pallasmaa and an interview with Ando.
