Description
The Japanese House Reinvented explores the innovative designs of 50 recent houses that showcase Japan's enduring commitment to design innovation. From tiny plots in crowded urban contexts to seismic threats, these homes have been shaped by unique challenges that encourage their architects to explore new ideas of stability and ephemerality.
These spaces are not only fascinating but also idiosyncratic, reflecting the formal innovation and attention to materials, technology, and measures to coax in light and air while maintaining domestic privacy. The result is cutting-edge residences that suggest new ways of being at home.
This overview demonstrates Japan's substantial force on the international scene, with a focus on design innovation that continues to inspire architects and designers today.
