"Architecture, which acquires tranquility and balance thanks to geometric order, obtains dynamism thanks to natural phenomena and human movements." This quotation from architect Tadao Ando introduces this book of photographs by Karl Lagerfeld of Ando's Vitra conference pavilion. This is not the first time Lagerfeld has focused his considerable energies on architectural photography, and the results are impressive. He transfers the basic ideas of Ando's architecture into photographic form, and presents both close-ups of geometric detail as well as views of the whole building and environs. Lagerfeld finds a sensitive language to reveal the characteristics implicit in Ando's creation.
