Which material is most characteristic of Tadao Ando's designs?

  • Concrete

  • Wood

  • Steel

  • Glass

Answer

Concrete is the most characteristic material of Tadao Ando's designs. Ando's use of concrete is notable for its raw, unfinished appearance, which emphasizes the material's inherent qualities and creates a sense of timelessness and solidity. He often uses concrete in large, monolithic forms, creating simple and elegant structures that play with light and shadow.
