Abstract
"Contemporary Japanese designers and architects keep finding new ways to refurbish and take inspiration from the ways of old. From a thatched roof farmhouse occupied by a Zen priest to Tadao Ando's experimental 4x4 House, Shigeru Ban's conceptual Shutter House, and a beautiful homage to bamboo in the form of a home, this book traverses the multifaceted landscape of Japanese living today. Also included is a list of addresses and a glossary of terms"--Provided by publisher.
