1. Naoshima was the brainchild of the Japanese publishing magnate who owns Benesse. It was a bit of a labour of love, so not easy to repeat. It is a spectacular place.

2. Awaji is a bit of a different kettle of fish - he basically was architect for a redesign of much of the island, and the project included a hotel. So, he is not really in the business of doing hotels, to my knowledge.

3. There is always the new Ando fountain outside the Connaught in London.
