Arata Isozaki departed on a road to be a world architect from the outset by having whole world of culture as base. Isozaki has constantly asserted that architecture can be a philosophy in itself and an ideology with its own cultural legacy. In his national context, Isozaki's works can be seen as attempts to develop and indicate an appropriate direction for the rapidly changing Japanese architecture.
Arata Isozaki has developed his architecture by six architectural concepts which contain Writing architecture, Process planning, Virtuality, City, Technique, Capital since 1960s. But his architectural concepts are difficult to understand easily because its interrelation and opaque entity. Therefore his architectural concepts need to arrange for apparent comprehension. Its
appropriate solution is formal approach in researcher's opinion. Comparatively speaking, Arata Isozaki's works can be understood apparently by the formal characteristics. The kinds of forms is Hexahedron, Vault, Square cone, Cylinder, Ellipse, Indefinite form. The hexahedron is the first(35.2%) form and the vault is the second(27.8%) form which have applied to Arata Isozaki's
architectural works.
