Shigeru Ban’s PAPER TUBE STRUCTURES, the kind of magic that is worth a Pritzker.
The project is based on a few, simple points: the GRAND STAIRCASE, the “MOVING ROOM”, the WOODEN ROOF, the WOODEN SCREEN and the WALKABLE SKYLIGHTS.
After winning the competition for “New Headquarters for Swatch and New Production Buildings for Omega” in Biel (Switzerland), Shigeru Ban’s proposal is now under construction.
Shigeru Ban wins the International competition for the Tainan Museum of Fine Arts.
