This hugely revealing journey through the mind and memory of one of architecture’s great poets is told in Tadao Ando’s own words. A very personal volume, it traces five decades of prolific creativity, gathering over 750 sketches, models, and technical drawings that reveal the essence of his practice. From the raw immediacy of pencil lines to the precision of technical drawings, witness the evolution of many of his most famous projects― among them Row House in Sumiyoshi, Rokko Housing, Chichu Art Museum, Bourse de Commerce―not as isolated moments of inspiration, but as living architectural projects, shaped by time, travel, and reflection.
