Tadao Ando is a remarkable architect. He has influenced designers around the world. He understood from the start the power of simple solutions. He is a brilliant man.
Fumihiko Maki came to my town at least twice. He spoke about his work as a simple man might describe his garden. He understands the art of designing buildings in a way that so many could learn from. He is a brilliant architect, and a very humble man.
Other architects (like these) keep appearing in Japan who have a wonderful sense of small, beautiful, quiet buildings. They have a lot to teach the rest of us. More images here.
