I remember seeing a site showcasing the work of tadao ando. It was simple Flash with linear 3D forms. Anyone know the URL?

i love his work. i wanna see that site too.
there are so many books on his work though.
i've personally seen some of his work and it's simply amazing.

Payed a visit to the Vitra Factory in Basel saw the Conference Center he did for them... truly an amazing man.. However I'm more into Zaha Hadid's work.. The Fire Station she did for Vitra too is crazy!
If you ever get near that place.. You have to visit

I was into a Zaha Hadid's architecture
until the day I went to a lecture of hers in Brussels
a complete ignorant of the design, structural and architectural process, with an obnoscious diva behaviour/discourse, relying on the sweat of good asian interns.
Steven Holl, now that's an architect.

tadao ando's work makes my heart beat faster. no shit.

i heard bad reputations of Zaha. i think her work isn't that great. the quality of concrete in her building is not even close to ando's.
one of my fav is Peter Zumthor. he does amazing building.

Saw ando at artcenter a couple of years ago. He was talking about a buddhist temple that he designed that looked like an egg. He was saying "this is an egg" and everyone was laughing thinking he was being facetious, but he was serious, it was a fucking egg. He was a prize fighter before discovering architecture, he probably didnt have patience for school.
