This little treasure is full of ideas. inspired by traditional Japanese architecture. I simply love the way Japanese appreciate the space without clutter and I get always amazed by the clever usage of even the tiniest possible space. The attention to detail is awesome. This book is truly thought provoking - especially if you are looking for ideas for your own house.The book is divided into four main sections:- Reworking Tradition- Managing Space- Experimenting with Materials- Personal StatementsI enjoyed reading this book from the beginning to the end. It is a great addition to my collection of books on Japanese architecture.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Great BookBy Nancy OttersonWere not going to redo our home in a Japanese style. but sitting and reading this book and enjoying the pictures is like a trip to the Orient.2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Cutting Edge Japanese ArchituctureBy Jessica BrunelleI am very interested in any ASIAN INTERIOR/EXTERIOR DECOR books and books on FENG SHUI. CONTEMPORARY IKEBANA. and MINIMAL DESIGN. - I think this is an amazing book if I were designing and/or remodeling a home or a room. This book is more for Architecture and mainly non-modular interior design planning. I am really into minimalism and uphold a feng-shui anti-clutter philosophy as this book displays.. Not for instruction. more for introducing new materials and styles.
