With a November 16 party attended by several hundred members of Melbourne’s arts, design, and cultural community, as well as government officials, the Naomi Milgrom Foundation celebrated the completion of this year’s MPavilion, designed by Pritzker laureate, Tadao Ando, in the city’s Queen Victoria Gardens. At only 4,000 square feet, the commission is diminutive compared to most of his other projects, causing him to at first hesitate on the commission. But Ando accepted the “modest request,” he says, “because I believe architecture resides in people's hearts and endures, regardless of size.”
