Abstract

Shigeru Ban is a Japanese architect who brought
a new approach to
contemporary modern architectural design with his material selection and techniques. Ban creates his designs with easily obtainable and affordable materials,
and is appreciated for his ideology and his humanitarian aid projects. This research analyzes Ban’s environmentally sensitive design approach and the natural materials used in
the Japanese Pavilion in
Germany, the Papertainer
Museum in South Korea, the
Centre Pompidou Metz in France
and the Cardboard
Cathedral in New Zealand.
The paper tube technology that Ban developed and implemented is analyzed as a construction material and sustainable design.
It also evaluates Ban’s contribution
to sustainable design.

Keywords

Shigeru Ban, sustainability, paper tubes, environmentally sensitive design, ecological design
