What is your favorite project?
I like the Brutalist architecture of the Toho Gakuen School of Music but I'm curious to see the evolution of the Bosco Verticale, how will all these plants and trees flourish in this environment ? But it must be great to live in this tower, downtown but when in the morning you open your eyes, surround with greenery...
