Explore 594 illustrated award cases: actual buildings and architectural honours, with the programme, year and official evidence stated separately.
Built-project awards and career honours recognise different subjects. Award year, building completion and photography date are distinct; a personal honour does not transfer to every building by its recipient. Photographs open at a larger size with creator and licence references.
The 1987 Pritzker Architecture Prize recipient record names Kenzo Tange. Kenzo Tange studied architecture at Tokyo University and established the Tange Laboratory after becoming an assistant professor in 1946. His work includes Hiroshima's Peace Center and Park and research into large-city spatial structure. The official biography links that research with Plan for Tokyo 1960, a response to urban growth and change.
