Description

In another special edition episode for our architecture series, from Lego to Skyscrapers, Vince speaks to visionary architect Koichi Takada. 
 
Koichi and his team belong to a new generation of architects who bring nature back into the urban environment. Informed by his Japanese design sensibility, each project embodies Koichi’s commitment to nature’s organic forms—light, air, water, and even sound.
 
In conversation with Vince, they explore how Japanese culture has influenced his craftsmanship, why architecture should emulate nature to create an emotional connection, and how his unique design approach will shift the construction industry into a more sustainable future.
 
To explore Koichi’s forward-thinking practice, grab a copy of his first monograph – ‘Koichi Takada: Architecture, Nature, and Design’.
