BASIC DESIGN RESEARCH: KOSHINO HOUSE BY TADAO ANDO Tadao Ando’s life and architectural career Tadao Ando is a self-taught architect born and based in Osaka. Despite being already 80 years old, he is still very energetic and has a youthful spirit. He believes that age is just a number and what matter is how our soul is, meaning we might be old but our spirit can remain young He was inspired to be an architect around his teenage years after coming across a book by Le Corbusier and established his own company in 1968- Tadao Ando Architects and Associates. His initial intention for his career was to become a professional boxer, but he eventually switched to architecture. He is such a hard working man that his organs failed to work and were removed. However, the man himself is still leading a joyful life, continuing his architectural career. Starting from his early age, Ando has already traveled a lot, going to many places from Europe to America and even to Africa to witness work of renowned architects because “architecture is something to be experienced with all five senses – not just the eyes.”as he explained. As his career and reputation grew, he gained more opportunities to work globally,too. He was awarded with a Pritzker in 1995 for his “Church of Light” KTT- Hanoi University of Architecture

Tadao Ando’s architectural style and his architectural ideals When it comes to Ando’ style, people would describe it as serene and peaceful. It may not be much from the outside but the inside is absolutely impressive, not for its interior but for how Ando deals with and arranges the spaces of the building, with its function and nature in mind. Ando’s architectural style is said to create a haiku effect, emphasizing nothingness and empty space to represent the beauty of simplicity. He favors designing complex spatial circulation while maintaining the appearance of simplicity and absolute minimalism. The simplicity of his architecture emphasizes the concept of sensation and physical experiences, mainly influenced by Japanese culture. The religious term Zen, focuses on the concept of simplicity and concentrates on inner feeling rather than outward appearance. Zen influences vividly show in Ando’s work and became its distinguishing mark. Ando also emphasizes the association between nature and architecture, he believes that “We borrow from nature the space upon which we build”. He intends for people to easily experience the spirit and beauty of nature through architecture. He believes architecture is responsible for performing the attitude of the site and makes it visible. This not only represents his theory of the role of architecture in society but also shows why he spends so much time studying architecture from physical experience. Ando’s buildings are often characterized by complex three-dimensional circulation paths. These paths weave in between interior and exterior spaces formed both inside large-scale geometric shapes and in the spaces between them. His inspiration/ Idol/ Hero were Le Corbusier whom he fancies so much that he has a dog named after him, Ludwig Mies van de Rodhe, Frank Loydd Wright, Louis Kahn

Like one of his greatest influences- Frank Lloyd Wright, Tadao Ando loves to involve nature in his work as much as possible. If you have seen enough of both of the men’s construction, you will find similarity in the way they blend their buildings into nature. In Ando’s architecture, nature can mean woods, hills, fields, and lakes. Or it can mean wind, rain, and light. It can mean the sound of water. It can mean darkness. Whatever the case, Ando allows such variables into his architecture in imaginative ways that may or may not be convenient and comfortable, and that either extend or simply ignore the presumed functionality of architecture. Indeed Ando presents a view of functionality that puts it firmly in its place. Function is no more than a basic necessity. He has described this himself: ``I like to see how far architecture can pursue function and then, after the pursuit has been made, to see how far architecture can be removed from function. The significance of architecture is found in the distance between it and function.‘’ Being Japanese, Ando is greatly impacted by the culture of his home country. In his traveling youth, he carries his roots along whilst learning from western master. The greatest influence of Japanese architecture on Tadao Ando must be the use of empty spaces. In Japanese architecture, things are easily and often removed. For example, the futon. Its fold-away function is not just for "freeing up usable square footage in a space-tight country",which is merely a benefit from the true meaning and original philosophy of a futon. The true reason for the fold-and-store-away function is so that you can create an "empty space". By creating an empty-space, it allows for limitless potential of reasons for the room's existence. It could become a tea room, dinner room, bedroom, entertainment room... the empty room creates "potential" to be any room. Traditional rooms in Japan (which are becoming rare) often have nothing that is permanent, even the "walls" or fusuma, slide away to create a larger expansive empty-space. The people, walls, furniture, and artwork, enter and then leave the room, to return it to empty-space, full of potential.... This philosophy can often be seen in many parts of the country, from objects to culture, to even an international company like Muji ("Mu" meaning "empty" or "absence" with a hint of "tranquility" and "potential") When mentioning Tadao Ando, here are some key words for you to do your own further research: Serenely minimalist aesthetic, nature (light), Japanese architecture, Critical regionalism, pure geometry

ABOUT THE KOSHINO HOUSE + The building was built in 1979 in Ashiya city, Hyogo province, Japan by Tadao Ando Architect & Associates for a famous fashion designer Koshino whom the house was named after

+ Building site: This building is 3168 feet square (about 294 meter square) and located on a site of mountainside dense with trees. The house consists of two rectangular concrete blocks placed parallel, partly deep in the ground with the slope of the national park land. The north volume consists of two stories containing a double-height living room, kitchen and dining room on the first floor with the master bedroom and study on the second floor. The south block includes six linearly organized children's bedrooms, a bathroom and a foyer. Connecting the two spaces is an underground tunnel located beneath the exterior stairs of the courtyard. + History: Four years after the construction, a studio was added Twenty years after the construction, Koshino contacted Tadao Ando again to renovate the bedroom wing of the house, the conversion transformed this volume of the house into a completely independent new two-story guesthouse.

By Tadao Ando

+ Project highlight: use of minimalism, the hierarchical shift of space and volume depicting the importance of life. The accents are added by playing light and shadow on the plain concrete walls and wooden floors to give inhabitants a close to nature experience.

OUR IDEA To make the house – a significant construction built by Tadao Ando a more public space without interrupting the personal use of a home, our group came up with an idea to build a whole new building for communal purposes. Our new block is located in the lowest part of the whole site where these is beautiful greenery. In order for the new construction to be similar to the original design of Koshino House, we decided to make the first floor, whose function is a traditional Japanese tea room, underground. Therefore, the second floor is on the ground, and that’s where we put a gallery where we display more artworks. People can came to see artwork, then sit down with a cup of green tea and contemplate or make a conversation. We believe this new building can bring the public closer to a work of a global architect with violating the intimacy of a home KTT- Hanoi University of Architecture
