Book Synopsis Japanese Architecture as a Collaborative Process by : Dana Buntrock
Download or read book Japanese Architecture as a Collaborative Process written by Dana Buntrock and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architects throughout the world hold Japan's best architecture in high regard, considering the country's buildings among the world's most carefully crafted and innovative. While many books, magazines, and exhibitions have focused on the results of architectural practice in Japan, this book is the first to explain the reasons for Japan's remarkable structures. Architecture does not occur in isolation; Japan's architects are able to collaborate with a wide variety of people from professional consultants to constructors. Dana Buntrock discusses architecture as a part of the construction community, moving from historical precedents that predate the emergence of the architectural profession in Japan through to contemporary practices.
Book Synopsis Materials and Meaning in Contemporary Japanese Architecture by : Dana Buntrock
Download or read book Materials and Meaning in Contemporary Japanese Architecture written by Dana Buntrock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 745 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this beautiful and perceptive book, Dana Buntrock examines, for the first time, how tradition is incorporated into contemporary Japanese architecture. Looking at the work of five architects – Fumihiko Maki, Terunobu Fujimori, Ryoji Suzuki, Kengo Kuma, and Jun Aoki – Buntrock reveals the aims influencing many wonderful works barely known in the West; the sensual side of Japanese architecture borne out of approaches often less concerned with professionalism than with people and place. The buildings described in this book illustrate an architecture that embraces uniqueness, expressing unusual stories in the rough outlines of rammed earth and rust, and demonstrating new paths opening up for architectural practice today. For some, these examples will offer new insight into expressions of tradition in Japanese architecture; for others, this book offers inspiration for their own efforts to assert the unique heritage of other regions around the world. Compelling, insightful and groundbreaking, this book is essential for everyone studying Japanese architecture and anyone trying to invoke narrative and tradition in contemporary design.

Book Synopsis Collective Urban Design by : Yasunori Kitao
Download or read book Collective Urban Design written by Yasunori Kitao and published by Delft University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with two urban design issues: City Planning and Architectural Design. The relationship between these two issues has been regarded as an `eternal' topic in the domain of urban design. The book offers a method to create a harmonious, individual and environmentally friendly collective form, through a collaborative design process. In order to achieve this purpose, civil engineers, city planners and architects have to work together, sharing a common object. The Master Architect Design Collaboration Method, which is studied mainly in this book, is a design method to create mixed types of collective forms. This method can be used for urban renewal projects and urban development projects. To understand the design process and method, the following is discussed: the issue of collective form creation and its history, design coordination, design communication and design development. Finally, the book discusses the urban design method from a practical point of view. This book is aimed at people working in public sectors, building engineers, city planners, architects and students and contributes to the making of urban design strategies and the carrying out of urban design processes.

Book Synopsis Place, Time, and Being in Japanese Architecture by : Kevin Nute
Download or read book Place, Time, and Being in Japanese Architecture written by Kevin Nute and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In addition to highlighting the human benefits of built environments which relate to particular place, time and being, many of the Japanese buildings examined illustrate practical strategies for revealing these universal parameters which are equally applicable beyond Japan. It is suggested that wider use of some of these approaches could not only help to sustain both environmental and cultural identities against the homogenising effects of globalisation, but also has the potential to heighten our appreciation of the peculiar condition of being here now."--Jacket.
Book Synopsis Japanese Creativity by : Yūichirō Edagawa
Download or read book Japanese Creativity written by Yūichirō Edagawa and published by Jovis Verlag. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Japanese Creativity, Japanese architect Yuichiro Edagawa sets out to try to determine the roots of a particularly Japanese architectural style by analyzing a wide variety of exemplary buildings from the sixth century to the present. Developing his theory out of close observation and practical knowledge and constantly shifting between historical and more recent examples, Edagawa isolates what he considers to be the distinctive characteristics of Japanese architectural creativity and composition: intimacy with nature, importance of materials, bipolarity and diversity, asymmetry, devotion to small space and an appreciation for organic form. He finds these qualities across Japanese design, and from these extrapolates a theory of Japanese architectural creation. With Japanese Creativity, Edagawa provides a personal yet comprehensive survey of Japanese creativity and the architectural process, offering an insight into contemporary Japanese culture and identity, both deeply traditional and modern at the same time.
Book Synopsis The Constructed Other: Japanese Architecture in the Western Mind by : Kevin Nute
Download or read book The Constructed Other: Japanese Architecture in the Western Mind written by Kevin Nute and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Constructed Other argues that the assumed otherness of Japanese architecture has made it both a testbed for Western architectural theories and a source of inspiration for Western designers. The book traces three recurring themes in Western accounts of Japanese architecture from the reopening of Japan in the mid-nineteenth century to the present day: a wish to see Western architectural theories reflected in Japanese buildings; efforts to integrate elements of Japanese architecture into Western buildings; and a desire to connect contemporary Japanese architecture with Japanese tradition. It is suggested that, together, these narratives have had the effect of creating what amounts to a mythical version of Japanese architecture, often at odds with historical fact, but which has exercised a powerful influence on the development of building design internationally.

Book Synopsis Itsuko Hasegawa by : Itsuko Hasegawa
Download or read book Itsuko Hasegawa written by Itsuko Hasegawa and published by Nai010 Publishers. This book was released on 2000 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Itsuko Hasegawa is the most famous woman in Japanese architecture and the most prominent figure in the Shinohara School, and her influence on the architecture of Japan cannot be overstated. Her work often plays with the boundaries between the natural and the artificial: one of her most famous buildings, the Yamanashi Museum of Fruit, is composed of various different but related curvaceous fruitlike forms. Itsuko Hasegawa: Island Hopping - Crossover Architecture presents some of her most innovative and provocative recent projects, including the Fukuroi Culture Center, the Shiogama Lifelong Learning Center, the Kurahashi Community Center, the Namekawa Housing Project and her latest project, the winning entry for the Niagata City Performing Arts Center. This monograph provides an essential look at the work of a designer who has earned her place alongside such figures as Rem Koolhaas as one of the most important architects of the past three decades.
