[.en] This weighty monograph is the culmination of the cooperation between architect Tadao Ando and Oris, a Croatian publishing house, who together have built a respectful relationship since a first interview about ten years ago, one that has led to the publication of many of his projects around the world. Now all of these projects and writings are brought together for the first time in this book, a portrait of uncompromising dedication to architecture and openness to cultural exchange. It is divided in four sections: architecture and nature, urban conditions, dwelling, and cross-cultural dialogues. The book includes an introduction by Juhani Pallasmaa and an interview with Ando.

Tadao Ando monograph is a publishing project made in close collaboration with Tadao Ando Architect and Associates, which presents the recent realizations of one of the greatest protagonists of Japanese and international architectural scene. The book opens with a preface by Juhani Pallasmaa, closes with an essay by Tadao Ando and includes an extensive interview based on discussions conducted between Tadao Ando and Maroje Mrduljaš in Osaka in 2010 and 2016. The monograph is organized in four thematic sections which tackle specific topics of Ando’s prolific work.
