Book Synopsis The Yokohama Project by : Albert Ferré
Download or read book The Yokohama Project written by Albert Ferré and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yokohama Project: An interesting building usually has an equally interesting tale to tell, an epic embedded in the organization of the massive, complex amount of matter used to create the structure. This book recounts the story of the Yokokama Project, an inventive, undulating, grass-covered ferry terminal that was never meant to be built. Asked to produce some material for an architectural journal, London-based architects Farshid Moussavi and Alejandro Zaera-Polo of FOA (Foreign Office Architects) set themselves a program of entering three competitions, through which to explore design ideas they had become interested in. When they actually won the second competition, for the Yokohama International Port Terminal, in Yokohama, Japan, their plans suddenly changed. The Yokohama Project presents a textual and visual replica of the way their winning building was developed, over eight years, by FOA and a huge team of engineers and researchers in Tokyo and Yokohama. Unlike the typical architectural book, this one offers no critical texts and no theoretical analyses of the structure; instead, it aims to rediscover the linearity of the building's creation. The reader is thus moved linearly through the following chapters: Design Evolution, Building Permits, Structure, Services, Finishes, Circulation, and Final Documents. Peppered throughout with detailed plans, elevations, diagrams, and sketches, as well as candid snapshots of the design team at work (sometimes asleep at and under their desks!), The Yokohama Project is not only an homage to a building but to the many people who worked on making it real. Foreign Office Architects is a pioneering architectural practice founded in London in1992. It has since expanded to include an office in Japan. The principal partners are Farshid Moussavi and Alejandro Zaera Polo, both of whom are graduates of Harvard University's Masters in Architecture program and former employees of Rem Koolhaus's OMA (Office for Metropolitan Architecture). Current projects include a publishing headquarters in Paju City, Korea, and a park and open-air auditorium in Barcelona, Spain. Completed projects include New Belgo restaurant and Bermondsey Antiques Market in London. This past year, FOA were among the short-listed winners for the competition to design Porto Antico in Genova, Italy.

Book Synopsis My Yokohama: The Local Travel Guide to Yokohama, Japan by : Cindy Liu
Download or read book My Yokohama: The Local Travel Guide to Yokohama, Japan written by Cindy Liu and published by Japan Travel Guide. This book was released on 2024-06-07 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just thirty minutes from Tokyo, and set along a spectacular bay waterfront, Yokohama hits different. It’s easygoing, free-swinging, even a bit decadent. Yokohama received Japan’s first foreign influences, and it was the origin of everything from Japanese jazz culture to the fashion aesthetic of Plastic Love. At the same time, Yokohama is more set in its ways than Tokyo, less mercurial, and more staidly Japanese. Sleepy 1960s soda shops that simply couldn’t stay in business in Tokyo still thrive in Yokohama, as do the octogenarians who patronize them. And for the cost of a hostel or a capsule in Tokyo, you can stay in a nice three-star hotel in Yokohama. Yokohama is a perfect introduction for a first-time visitor to Japan. It’s a lot more manageable than Tokyo, but it’s still a city of three million people with its own techno-urban vibe. It can also be a level-up for the visitor who’s already seen Tokyo and Osaka, and wants to go beyond the obvious destinations and to a city where tourists seldom tread. Yokohama is a beyond-the-obvious kind of city, and I’ll show you the beyond-the-obvious in Yokohama. Yes, there are the ramen museums and shopping malls that every guidebook knows about. But I’ll take you farther: to local shopping streets and markets, jazz clubs and listening bars where you’re almost forced to make new friends, tiny sushi bars and izakayas, hidden-away coffee shops, and long-forgotten attractions that only locals visit. We’ll explore the complex, layered, local Yokohama. The one that’s not in Tripadvisor. The one my Japanese friends and colleagues have described and shown to me over the years. The one that made me fall in love with Yokohama — My Yokohama.

Book excerpt: A WORLD INSIDE All Hiroto has ever known is a life on a tiny coastal speck of Japan. Much of the country has been swallowed by Yokohama Station, a mysterious, ever-growing series of buildings that's been around for as long as anyone can remember. The few who live outside its many entrances have never seen Inside and know only rumors and legends of the station's interior. That all changes when Hiroto is given an 18 Ticket, a mysterious item that lets him enter the massive complex for five days. The young man has always sought a purpose, but the one he finds may not be the sort he'd hoped for...
Book Synopsis Contemporary History of Cantonese Migrants in Yokohama Chinatown by : Yee Lam Elim Wong
Download or read book Contemporary History of Cantonese Migrants in Yokohama Chinatown written by Yee Lam Elim Wong and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-11 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book vividly portrays the past, current, and future development of Yokohama Chinatown through the context of its Cantonese residents, grounded through a family history. It is useful for both academic and non- academic readers who are interested in migration history, transformation of urban spaces, anthropological perspectives of integration of immigrants, diasporic studies and overseas Chinese studies. It is informative when considering the role of immigrant communities in the world today in the context of globalization stimulating cross-border movements and anti-globalization forces that act as push and pull factors for migration. It is also a study of harmonious integration of the overseas Chinese community in Yokohama and its ability to retain its own cultural traits, rights, rituals, traditions and dialect language in one of the most homogenous countries in the world. This increases the attractiveness of Yokohama City in terms of ethnic diversity, cosmopolitan multiculturalism and urban space renewal.

Book excerpt: "It is a special honor for the Yamanouchi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., to assist the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution in presenting the museum's first major exhibition of Japanese art, Yokohama: Prints from Nineteenth Century Japan. Japanese woodblock prints, which have enjoyed appreciation throughout the world, were the first artistic medium to respond to the profound changes affecting Japanese technology, society, and institutions during the years following the opening of Yokohama to international trade in 1859. To the people of Japan more than one hundred years ago, Yokohama prints provided the first views of the customs and achievements of the technologically advanced nations of the United States and Europe. The colorful prints enhanced Japanese understanding of nations as yet unseen except by a few official travelers"--
