Among the many peculiarities of SANAA, the most important Japanese studio in the current international scene, one is its confederal structure, thanks to which its two founders work as a team but can also each carry out projects on a solo basis.

Arquitectura Viva presents three recent works of his: the Jining Art Museum (China), the Ochoquebradas House (Chile), and the Terasaki House outside Tokyo.
