During his six-and-a-half decade career, architect Togo Murano attained legendary status in his native Japan, where his work is considered among the most outstanding and influential of the twentieth century. Murano began working in Osaka in 1918 and died in 1984 at the age of 93, having completed more than 300 projects.
