After studying with the modernist architect Kenzo Tange, Kisho Kurokawa was one of the founders in the early Sixties of the Metabolist group, which countered the “age of the machine” with the “principle of life”. In this approach, cities and buildings were conceived as living cell organisms, which could develop with the addition of units. The Metabolist theory of evolving architecture reached its apogee in 1970 at the Osaka World Expo, for which Kurokawa built three pavilions.
