Yamasaki sometimes dreamed about his work. Once he woke up at three o’clock in the morning. He remembered a building that was in his dream. He got up and started to draw.

Yamasaki was different from other architects. His buildings give people a feeling of peace and happiness. Many of his sesigns have pools of water, flowers, and windows on the roof to let in light. He wanted to give them a place away from the busy ways of modern life.

Yamasaki worked for several companies. But his success began when he started his own company.  In 1956, he won the Architect’s First Honor Award for his design of an airport in St. Louis, Missouri. He won another two awards over the next five years. In 1962, he designed the World Trade Centre in New York. In 1993, a bomb exploded (炸弹爆炸) in it. But the buildings did not fall down because they had a good design.
