Mas Yendo Speaking of Himself

August 21, 2012 by Fosco Lucarelli 1 Comment

Two days ago Socks featured the work of Mas Yendo. Thanks to Stefano Massa (@doctorcrowd on Twitter) we can update the post with a video interview of this Japanese visionary, by Gestalten TV.

“By definition, the Greek term Utopia is literally a non-place. Commonly, it is used to describe an ideal society, respectively a perfect community, which does not (yet) exist. By definition, an architect is a person trained in the planning, design, and oversight of the construction of buildings. Masahiko Yendo’s approach reaches far beyond this simple term, as his “take on experimental architecture is non-built.” So join his “process of discovering,” and find out who really builds the buildings in our latest Gestalten.tv interview, which took place at Mas’s studio in New York’s Hamptons.”
