DAB810 Supplementary Assessment

The main design idea of Tod’s Omotesando Building and Mikkimoto Ginza 2 is the special openings on the external walls, which I have been attracted with. I have learnt that the openings of a building can be different, can be innovate. In Alto Ito's view, the opening is not only can receive natural light in a building, but also can be the creative shape that produce attraction feeling for people.
