Tadao Ando is a renowned Japanese architect born in 1941 in Osaka. He was interested in architecture from a young age after seeing drawings by Le Corbusier. The document discusses Ando's Koshino House built between 1980-1984 in Ashiya, Japan. The house consists of two parallel concrete boxes with a fan-shaped extension added later. It uses principles like brutalism, asymmetrical balance, and blending the building into the landscape. The interior maintains a harmonious and minimalist design.

The famous American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright changed the way we build and the way we live. As an architect, Frank Lloyd Wright was known for many things, but perhaps his most famed characteristic was his exceptional attention to detail – in many of his projects, each furniture piece was designed specifically for its intended location.
One of the most important buildings by architect Le Corbusier from the 17 that have been to UNESCO's World Heritage List is Villa Savoye, the top-heavy weekend retreat created as a Modernist version of the French country house

Organic architecture is a philosophy of architecture which promotes harmony between human habitation and the natural world through design approaches so sympathetic and well integrated with its site, that buildings, furnishings, and surroundings become part of a unified, interrelated composition.

f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.
About the Speaker

An opinionated individual with an interest in cryptography and its intersection with secure software development.
2. Biography
Born 13th September 1941 in
Osaka Japan
Ando had many careers
including professional boxer,
local carpenter
“As it happens work was
carried on where I lived when I
was 15, and I got to know some
of the carpenters. About the
same time, in a used book store
I saw a book on the complete
work of Le Corbusier. I
recopied some of his drawings
and I would say that that is
how I began to be interested in
architecture”
3. Emptiness
Within only light and
space surround the
visitor.
Koshino House, Japan 1980-84
Traits in Tadao Ando’s buildings
4. Tactility in the use of light and shadows
Hard walls seem soft to touch. They exclude then enclose, admitting light, wind and passing visitor,
who leaves behind the disorder of everyday existence to be sheltered in a realm of stillness.
Church of Light, Japan 1988 4 x 4 House, Japan 2001-3
5. Tadao Ando blends
together the site and the
building.
He does this by
incorporating the
landscape into the
building.
Additionally, Ando
makes use of every bit of
the site
Chichu Art Museum 2004
6. Materiality
His powerful concrete walls set a limit. Beyond this point there is no passage but that is
opened by his will.
• mostly uses concrete, glass and wooden and stone floors
Pringiers in Sri Lanka 2005
8. Located at the foot of the
Rokko Mountains, in Ashiya
City, east of Kobe.
Completed in two phases
(1980-81and 1983-84).
The Koshino House was
originally made up of two
parallel rectangular
concrete boxes.
9. In the second phase, a fan shaped
extension which now contains the
Atelier was added.
One unusual feature of this house
is that the visitor approaches it
from above, and is fully aware of
the plan of the house, if not its
specific function from outside.
The design element requires
extreme austerity
* Additional curve
Renovated in the year
1983.
10. Ground Floor Plan
1. Atelier
2. Living room
3. Bed rooms
The volume closer to six
identical rooms, is aligned
like Le Corbusier’s monastic
cells at Sainte-Marie-de-la-
Tourette.
12. Brutalism/ Brutal architecture
Asymmetrical Balance
Non separated
Alignment
Scale & Proportion
Unity. Harmony
Pattern-Repetition
Hierarchy
Blending
Principles of Designs Used in the Koshino House
13. Brutalism Architecture
It is a movement in architecture
that flourished from the 1950s to
the mid-1970s, descending from
the modernist architectural
movement of the early 20th
century.
A term used by Le Corbusier to
describe his choice of material.
Tadao Ando who is highly
inspired from Le Corbusier uses
this kind of architecture in a lot
of his buildings.
It is raw and without
ornamentation
14. Asymmetrical Balance
Not symmetrical , with the parts
not arranged correspondingly
identical on both sides of the
central axis.
It creates a sense of equilibrium
by the arrangement of two sets of
forms of different size and shape.
In this case the middle staircase
acts like the line of symmetry and
both sides have asymmetrical
balance.
15. Non Separated
When one structure gives
an illusion of being
separated yet being
connected.
The structure here is
separated along the axis in
the exterior while
connected underground in
the interior.
This gives an illusion of
separation and yet is
connected.
16. Alignment
When the plan of the design
structure has all its elements
parallel to each other.
In this case the 2
rectangular blocks are
parallel to each other hence
its aligned together.
The later addition has one
of its sides parallel to the
structure too.
17. Scale and Proportion
The relationship of one part or the whole to an outside measure, such as the human body.
Variation of scale. INTIMATE, IMPRESSIVELY and MONUMENTAL.
This is an intimate scale.
The living room and dinning room have a double story height which is balanced by the small
area given to the living and dinning area.
18. Unity. Harmony
A oneness and absence of
diversity ; a combination or
arrangements and the
ordering of all the elements in
a work that each contributes
to the total aesthetic effect.
This is seen in the interior of
the building.
With similar materials and
same esthetic value and
openings.
19. Pattern Repetition
The repetitive elements in design.
The ordered arrangement of parts into a pattern may occur at various scales at different
distances.
This is seen in the interior, the rectangular structure have a sense of repetition
room alignment with a pattern of the window opening in one rectangle also shows pattern
20. Hierarchy
A special importance or significance placed upon or imparted to something; a sharpness
or vividness of outline.
Emphasis requires that one idea or design themes be dominant, and is important in
achieving unity in design
This idea that dominates is given greater forcefulness through making other features less
prominent
21. Blending
Gradual merging of one thing
into another; the process of
bringing together into one.
The building blending in with
the topography of the
surrounding forms a union
between nature and the
building itself.
22. Conclusion
All of Ando’s choices in life have shaped him into the Architect he is today.
He challenged the norms as he started his career and today has his own philosophy.
His designs are modern and pure in form and space. Everything he creates is
harmoniously in balance though evidently sharp.
He believes that less is more.
Tadao Ando has won many international awards in architecture, which is why he remains
one of the world’s leading contemporary architects.
