"These dwellings form part of a complex of buildings designed by a group of signature architects coordinated by Arata Isozaki. Initially, at the height of post-modernism, Isozaki’s arrangement envisaged a strict order of obligatory façade alignment along the street and uniform building heights... As the project developed, with the tolerance of the urban planners, the various architects started to take ever greater liberties, concerning themselves with the originality of their own buildings and disregarding overall harmony. Our project remained there, like the work of an old-fashioned, obedient pupil."
