He Responds to the unvarying uniformity and ever growing chaos of the urban environment with sensitivity and simplicity. Ando through his understanding of these concepts has has generated an architecture that in his use geometric forms and special articulation shares the serenity and clarity characterized in traditional Japanese architecture while his manipulation of concrete and glass reflect more modern and western philosophies.
