Ando
Tadao Ando's architecture borrows from Japanese tradition and combines it with modernist influences. He thereby developed an entirely novel art of building in which concrete, timber, light, space, and nature interact in unique ways. In Vals, he decided to pay homage to the subtle aesthetics of Japanese tea houses. His 18 rooms radiate a soothing tranquility and direct the eyes of those who stay here toward the alpine scenery of the mountainside across from them.
