Tadao Ando, Complete Works - Reviews
"Everybody knows Ando's name as a world top architect but his works are unexpectedly not very well-known. Tadao Ando Complete Works introduces his 36 representative works from Row House in Osaka to Naoshima Contemporary Art Museum. Only a book of this size can encompass Ando's talent and stature."Intoxicate, TokyoJapan |

"Private house, theater, museum, church, penthouse or temple, whatever Tadao Ando designs and constructs conveys a strong message and independent character. This huge book introduces his 36 major representative works and projects, with big pictures, sketches and drawings."GA Japan, TokyoJapan |

"... now Tadao Ando is at the peak of his career, this book is published at just the right moment, and introduces his great representative works. From the Church of the Light to Armani Teatro, Ground Zero Project to Naoshima Contemporary Art Museum, readers cannot fail to be awed by his endless passion. His works, bringing together nature and architecture, will continue to attract us."Landscape Design, TokyoJapan |

"Ando's works are captured beautifully in this wonderful tribute."Metrosource, New YorkUnited States |

"Brilliantly, Ando had not formal training, proving that cocking around at uni for seven years, as most architects have to do just to learn how to design an NCP, is a waste of time. As this lavish, illuminating book proves, you're do better just growing some balls and trying it."Arena, LondonUnited Kingdom |
