Tadao Ando (安藤 忠雄, Andō Tadao, born 13 September 1941) is a Japanese autodidact architect [1] [2] whose approach to architecture and landscape was categorized by architectural historian Francesco Dal Co as "critical regionalism".
An identical house (4x4 house II) was commissioned to Ando Tadao by the neighbor of the adjacent plot (built in 2004), but the two twin houses were built using different materials. The 4x4 has a staircase and is made of concrete, and its copy has an elevator and is made of wood (laminated pine from Oregon and Paulownia wood).
The house and gardens contain many works from artists such as Donald Friend and Laki Senanayake as well as artefacts from Asia and Europe. [ 4 ] Since Bawa's death in 2003, Lunuganga has been managed by a group of his close friends, who formed the Lunuganga Trust.
