Description - Tadao Ando for Francois Pinault by Francesco Dal Co

The book tells the story of the 'conservative but unblinkered' restoration work conducted by the Japanese architect, but also looks in depth at the beginnings of the project. . Ando has been restrained in his approach to the Punta della Dogana, conserving the strong character of the building and respecting the original architectural features. In keeping with the past and in line with the present, Ando has designed alternating reinforced concrete baffles which split up the exhibition space and, in contrast, highlight the materials and features of the original building.
