Firm LocationHong Kong, Hong Kong

Lead ArchitectKenneth Chao
The Awaji Yumebutai is a built requiem. Ando’s meditation on renewal carved into the hillside. Terraces descend with quiet order, mirroring the contours of loss and growth. Concrete planes and planted grids become instruments of healing, where architecture dissolves into land, light, and sea. Photographically, it’s a study in restraint and reverence, where each frame captures a stillness that speaks beyond form, honoring a dialogue between nature, memory, and man.
