Tadao Ando's Manhattan Penthouse in Abitare

 

A Temple among the Clouds, Abitare, October 2020. 


“I always try to create homes that go beyond mere functional requirements, in order to turn them into places of rest for the spirit and the heart,” explains the acclaimed Japanese architect Tadao Ando, who has designed this white penthouse on the Upper East Side of Manhattan for his friend the gallerist Kazuhito Yoshii.
