This book demonstrates the ability of Japan's leading young architects to express an intrinsic union with the elements of nature through the language of architecture. Spectacular large-format images capture the essence and spirit of the houses, while informative descriptions provide enlightening context. The book's format underscores the strength and value of these projects--as well as the masterful skill of the architects behind them."-- ER -
