It all started with I've been to Le Corbusier's Savoir house in my school days. Surprisingly it was colored with several pastels like post-modern style of that time. I couldn't understand why it was like that. Some French said that it was original color. After around 15 years, when I visited again, it was back to the white-colored house, like to be usually introduced on the magazine.

Still I don't know the mystery of such a pastel-colored Savoir house and who knows the original color. Some books said that the house which Mies made in Weissenhof used to be pink.

I'm not really interested in colored-architecture. However I couldn't dismiss the notion that color has powerful force. For I feel there must be strong emotion caused by color, when I deal with many architecture around the world.

Then gradually my interest went on to why and how colors cause strong emotion.

2 years after my first visiting to Savoir, my teacher, Mexican architect, Ricard Rigoletta took us to Mexico to see his works and Baragan's one during my study abroad experience. Generally Mexican architect use original bright color, such as Mexican-pink, yellow and purple like three primary colors. Mexican strong sunshine makes these colors reflect on all hands and merge into surroundings. I'm getting highly interested in such phenomenon like pigments are poured onto water and color of water is changed. Afterwards, I tried to reproduce such color's phenomenon in our several projects.
