It’s not quite often when we see architects devoted to creating buildings as more than art, expression, or technological creation. Shigeru Ban is one of the most clever architects who knows how to recognize pressing problems and come up with the best solutions for them.
Shigeru Ban is a Japanese architect born in Tokyo in 1957, he founded Shigeru Ban Architects in 1985 and has since then expanded branches from Tokvo to New York and Paris. His career has spanned over various architectural fields from commercial spaces to museums, but his disaster relief (救灾) work shines the most.
He set a new standard for socially-aware and emergent (紧急的) architecture and paved the way for teaching the whole world how building skills can help in times of crises. His unique method earned him the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2014, where he was honored for his devotion to designing shelters for disaster-stricken areas. He is highly praised for showing how architecture can be a tool for positive social change, particularly in his attention to using materials and attending to social needs.
In a 2017 interview, Shigeru Ban was asked about what guided him towards being involved with disaster relief architecture. His replies detailed that there seemed to be a lack of social responsibility among architects in Japan regarding this matter, so he felt the urge to take action. After the Kobe earthquake in 1995, Ban saw the poor living conditions related to evacuation centers and wanted to make a change with architecture.
Following this event, he established the Voluntary Architects’ Network (VAN) to provide support to disaster-affected areas worldwide. When asked whether his initiatives were inspired by Japan’s continuous risk for earthquakes and volcano eruptions, he explained that his motivation (动力) comes from a desire to improve living conditions for disaster victims rather than Japan’s geographic risks. He’s a man with a skill for identifying problems and finding solutions.
4. What does the underlined word “expanded” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Organized. B. Enlarged. C. Strengthened. D. Tracked.
