時代雜誌日前選出2021最具影響力的人物，日本建築大師隈研吾名列其中，是名單中唯一一位建築師。名單中亦包涵了美國總統拜登、英國皇室哈利王子及梅根王妃、美國網球好手大阪直美、近年因監護人風波不斷的小甜甜布蘭尼等人。
Japanese architect Kengo Kuma has been named as the only architect in Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people of 2021. Kuma, who heads up Tokyo-based Kengo Kuma and Associates, was included in the annual ranking of the people the US magazine judges to be the world’s most influential.
隈研吾擅長結合自然元素與傳統工法，編織出獨特的「負建築」。
Kuma’ s unique take on ‘losing architecture’ involves elements of nature.
在由保坂健二朗（現任滋賀縣立美術館館長）為其撰寫的引文中提到，隈研吾獨特的「負建築」，以錯綜復雜的結構，將建築融入環境。儘管在東京街頭漫步時難以忽視新國立競技場，卻不會因此感到突兀。
He was recognized for his “intricate buildings”, which Kenjiro Hosaka, director of the Shiga Museum of Art, described as “losing architecture”. “Kengo Kuma champions an ideal of ‘losing architecture’ – intricate buildings that disappear into their environs – although it’s hard to miss the new National Stadium in Japan when walking through the heart of Tokyo,” said Hosaka in the citation.

今年，因為新國立競技場一案，隈研吾再次成為大眾的焦點。本案由隈研吾建築都市設計事務所領軍，協同兩間在地公司共同完成，該場館也是2021年東京奧運的主場地。「他經典的風格及手法在這個精心製作的案子中展現的一覽無遺」保坂健二朗說到，「生機蓬勃的綠植點綴在橢圓形建物的立面，這座體育館被層層的木簷包裹圍繞著。木頭不僅是隈研吾最愛的材料之一，更是收集自日本各都道府縣，象徵著全國的凝聚與團結。自然的元素讓建築與周邊的花園融為一體。」
This year Kuma was in the limelight as he designed the Japan National Stadium, which was the centerpiece of this year’s Olympics Games. “His stylistic fingerprints can be seen throughout the elaborate project, designed by Kengo Kuma and Associates in collaboration with two other firms for this year’s Olympic Games,” said Hosaka. “Greenery dots the facade of the oval-shaped structure, the centerpiece of this year’s Games, allowing a series of wooden eaves – a favored material for Kuma, procured from prefectures across Japan – to better blend in with the surrounding garden.”
隈研吾的作品座落全球，包括位於蘇格蘭的維多利亞與艾伯特博物館丹地分館（the V&A Dundee）。

與新國立競技場同樣令人驚艷的作品遍佈全球，包括位於蘇格蘭的維多利亞與艾伯特博物館丹地分館（the V&A Dundee）（這也是第一座由非英國建築師設計的英國博物館）、中國美術學院民藝博物館，以及日本的GC口腔科學博物館（GC Prostho Museum Research Center）。
在2019年，V&A Dundee被時代雜誌選入當年度世界最佳百大景點，同年度入選的還有位於高雄的衛武營國家藝術文化中心。
Alongside the stadium, Kuma has designed significant buildings around the world. These include the V&A Dundee in Scotland, Folk Art Museum in China and the GC Prostho Museum Research Center in Japan. In 2019, Time magazine named V&A Dundee in its list of the World’s Greatest Places for the year.
