Plan


 
Toyo Ito (sendai mediatheque)
Ito is not an easy architect to place within a certain movement – although he has been designing for over 30 years, his view is very modern, and based around a concept he terms ‘Architecture in a Simulated City’. Essentially, he is interested in creating architecture that is fit for today’s and the future’s information-led, consumer society.



The project connects the individual elements of the masterplan in a way which maintains their uniqueness and creates the feel of a free-flowing urban layer that integrates seamlessly into the architecture. private and public spaces overlap one another as structure blends into landscape, creating a series of dynamic environments in a continuum of structure.
