“In all my works, light is an important controlling factor,” says Ando. “I create enclosed spaces mainly by means of thick concrete walls. The primary reason is to create a place for the individual, a zone for oneself within society. When the external factors of a city’s
environment require the wall to be without openings, the interior must
be especially full and satisfying.” And further on the subject of walls,
Ando writes, “At times walls manifest a power that borders on the
violent. They have the power to divide space, transfigure place, and
create new domains. Walls are the most basic elements of architecture,
but they can also be the most enriching.”
