Tadao Ando 2 + Walter Burley Griffin 1: "The rectangular geometrical properties of the façade give a sense of volume and space, making use of the natural environments geometry."



Tadao Ando 1 + Walter Burley Griffin 2: "The use of light creates a sense of exterior light penetrating the interior but preserves access to views of the bush land being sensitive to the environment."

 Sketches of 6 Concepts

Tadao Ando 1. The use of light is evident in Ando’s architecture, creating a sense of exterior light penetrating the interior.

Tadao Ando 2. The rectangular geometrical properties of the façade give a sense of volume and space, by interweaving the interior and exterior spaces through complex three dimensional circulation paths.

Tadao Ando 4. The private aspect of Ando’s architecture focuses upon providing an enclosed area, primarily for the individual unaffected by external factors.

Walter Burley Griffin 1. Designing with nature---preserving access to and views of native bush land and being sensitive to natural features such as escarpments, creeks, rocky outcrops and established trees.

Walter Burley Griffin 2. Geometry—making use of the natural environments geometry in designing the planning of both Canberra and Castlecrag.



Walter Burley Griffin 3. Group of buildings faced one another to give that sense of separation and administrative zones.
