Krátky popis
The definitive overview of and ultimate resource on the iconic
architect-designed houses built in Japan from 1945 to the present.
Imagine a terraced house whose courtyard separates the kitchen from
the bedroom. Or a tiny, triangular tower of rooms stacked one above
another.Quirky, experimental and utterly fascinating, the houses
produced in Japan since the end of the Second World War are among
the most exceptional in the world. The Japanese House Since 1945 is
a cohesive chronology of the most compelling architect-designed
Japanese homes, showing developments in form, material,
architectural expression and family living over almost eight
decades. Unparallelled in their conceptual purity, many Japanese
houses have become icons at home as well as abroad.Presented with
clear prose and accompanied by compelling photographs and drawings,
this book features 97 houses, divided among nine chapters and
organized by decade. In addition to acquainting the reader with
individual homes, the book illuminates the social, technological,
geographic and historical factors behind these era-defining houses.
Developments over the period are underscored by the visual
presentation, as it evolves from monochrome to colour and from
hand-drawn to digital.Decade lead-ins set the historical context
for each chapter, while 'Spotlight' segments draw attention to the
separate components of the Japanese house. 'At Home' sections, most
written by architects and their family members, bring to life the
experience of living in these unique houses.
