Famous for his usage of paper as an architectural component, particularly recycled cardboard paper tubes used to quickly and efficiently house disaster victims, Ban shakes much of architectural conventions. He doesn’t only use an unusual palette, he also designs structures that don’t have very long lives and used out of recycleable materials. He just doesn’t like waste.
