Iwan Baan is a photographer whose work has taken him around the world, from Asia to Africa. Last year, he participated in a panel discussion on “Windows in Photographs” at the YKK AP Windowology 10th Anniversary Symposium in Tokyo, together with Yoshiharu Tsukamoto (Atelier Bow-Wow) and Takashi Homma (Photographer).
As someone who has collaborated with many architects, Baan speaks about some of the windows that have left the greatest impression on his mind.
