21. M A T E R I A L
The hallmark material of Tadao Ando. At
Koshino House he used concrete slabs with
corrugated surfaces, where the holes from
the formwork anchors are still visible. The
wave-like structure gives the material a
three-dimensional effect, especially when
awash with daylight.
The dimensions of the slabs were specified to
match those of a tatami mat - a traditional
Japanese sleeping mat. These are made of
rice straw and are the perfect size for a
sleeping person. They are often used in
Japanese architecture as a type of Modulor,
or scale of proportions, and Ando is also
clearly influenced by this idea. Indeed, not
only the concrete slabs, but the entire basic
grid of the house takes design cues from
these iconic mats.
Concrete
22. Widely used to make large glass windows
throughout the house. The reason for
using this material is giving way to large
quantities of light and offer a view of the
garden.
Glass
