OOoooppPS! Tokyo-based Toyo Ito is no former boxer! (You are thinking of Tadao Ando, a Pritzker-prize-winning architect of the same generation, from Osaka.) Ito is designer of Sendai Mediatheque, the Serpentine Pavilion of a few years back, and Tods Shoes in Tokyo.
uh yeah. Ando's the former boxer. I know they all look alike but their work is pretty different.
Good call. My bad.
