| 內容簡介： |
The quintessential Japanese architect of today, Kengo Kuma has
forged a modern design language that artfully combines the
countries traditional building crafts with sophisticated
technologies and materials. Associating a deep understanding and
respect for native construction techniques with a more globalized
outlook than many of his compatriots, Kengo Kumas work represents a
significant generational shift in a country rich with contemporary
architecture. From his iconic Glass House 1995 to the Nezu Museum
in Tokyo, this is the complete record of Kengo Kumas built work,
comprising twentyfour projects to date. Architecture historian
Kenneth Frampton frames Kumas work in the context of post-war
Japans flourishing architecture scene and influential figures and
offers a perspective on the international acclaim of Kumas ideas
and buildings. Projects are organized by the material themes that
have come to define the architects output: Water and Foliage; Wood;
Bamboo and Grass; and Stone and Ceramics. Kuma develops a personal
and architectural reflection on each. Each building is presented
through descriptive text, newly commissioned photographs and
detailed drawings, this last revealing a privileged view of the
refined architectonic vocabulary that characterizes Kumas
buildings. With the close collaboration of Kuma, this major
monograph fully documents a leading light of the global
architecture scene, offering a rich insight into contemporary
interpretations of Japans ancient building traditions. This
beautifully produced book will be an inspiration to any designer
who aims to create spaces for history and the future.
