Toyo Ito with Studio BananaTV: Architecture as a Whirlpool

DateFriday, March 18, 2011 at 1:50AM

Toyo Ito talks briefly about his design philosophy and a few selected projects including the sendai mediatheque and the serpentine pavillion.

"Architecture should not be an immobile pole fixed in the riverbed, but the whirlpool of the river. The whirlpool behaves differently than the current of the river flow but keeps a relationship with the flow and transforms gradually."
