Masterfully Architected

Designed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando

About Tadao Ando

His use of geometric forms and the interplay of light and shadow are central to his designs.

Tadao Ando is a renowned Japanese architect known for his minimalist and innovative designs. Born on September 13, 1941, in Osaka, Japan, Ando is a self-taught architect who began his career without formal training, which is relatively uncommon in the field. His work is characterized by the use of concrete, light, and space to create serene and contemplative environments. Here are some key aspects of his life and work:

Before becoming an architect, Ando worked as a boxer and a truck driver. His interest in architecture was sparked by visiting temples, shrines, and tea houses in Japan. He educated himself by reading architectural books, visiting buildings, and traveling extensively to study architecture worldwide.

Ando’s designs are noted for their simplicity and clarity, emphasizing the beauty of raw concrete and natural light. He often incorporates elements of nature into his buildings, creating a harmonious relationship between the built environment and the natural world.

  • PendingProperty Restoration

    Due to the current owner’s unfinished construction, the property will require approximately $5 million in renovations. Belwood plans not only to renovate the property but also to restore it to its original state as specified by Tadao Ando. Given the rarity and design mastery of this property, it is most fitting to return it to its originally designed condition. The unique materials used, many of which were imported from around the world, contribute to an estimated renovation period of 12-16 months.
  • PendingResale

    The rarity of this property makes it exceptionally valuable. Comparable homes of similar size in the area are selling in the range of $30-35 million. However, as a Tadao Ando-designed home, it will likely command a significantly higher price. A sale price of $39-40 million would yield a 100% return for our investors. Given its highly prized status, the property could potentially sell in the $40-50 million range.
