Werner Blaser, architect and author of more than one hundred books, introduces the reader to the world of Tadao Andos sunken architectures. In fascinating photographs, a method of construction is presented that has its roots in the traditional earth dwellings of northern and north-western China. Yet, Tadao Andos in-ground buildings are no dark, cave-like structures. The interiors are illuminated through open atriums and large, deep-drawn areas of glass, thus giving light an almost palpable form. Stillness and contemplativeness rank among the qualities of this architecture, corresponding herein to Far Eastern spirit.
