Author Description

This work reveals Tadao Ando's architecture through the medium of Richard Pare's photography. Pare works without the aid of artificial lighting to capture as directly as possible the light, colour and atmosphere of Ando's spaces. The book includes 22 of Ando's buildings from the last eight years and the photographs are accompanied by Ando's sketches, drawings and a brief decription. The introductory essay by Heneghan follows a short piece by Ando himself. This special edition has fold-out pages, special papers and cloth binding.
