The Tower of Winds, Yokohama, Japan
It was designed 20 years ago, but it is a
highly innovative form of architecture whose formal solutions and use
of technology reveal all the contemporaneity of 21st century
architecture: the Wind Tower is one of Toyo Ito's best-known projects.
It earned him the 1987 Edwin Guth Memorial Award of Excellence from
America's Illumination Engineering Society, a prestigious
acknowledgement of the strong symbolic value of this work in its urban
context.
The effect is truly original, because the reflective part can
be seen beyond the volume of the tower with its monolithic shape.The
tower is particularly spectacular at night, when the lights and neon
rings make the
Wind Tower into an architecture of light.
