DESIGNER

Recognized for having experimented with new possible relationships between the shell and structure, Toyo Ito has tried to merge the organic, natural approach with technological research. Its aim is to make sure that its projects, once they have been built, are contextualized and integrate in the best possible way, also thanks to immaterial and mobile elements.
