The Japanese House Since 1945
Auteur(s) : Naomi Pollock, Tadao Ando
Eccentric, experimental and unrivalled in their conceptual purity, the houses built in Japan since the end of the Second World War are among the most exceptional in the world. A wide variety of them have become icons both at home and abroad.
This book presents 97 houses, organised by decade. A coherent chronology of the most beautiful Japanese houses designed by architects, it analyses the evolution of forms, materials, architectural expression and family life over nearly eight decades. As well as exploring each house, the social, technological, geographical and historical factors behind it are highlighted.
