Architecture

In this book, Sou Fujimoto elucidates his idea of architecture with the help of more than 120 models of realized structures, conceptional tests or designs currently in progress, each captioned by his thoughts on the future of architecture. The models range from very small buildings to huge constructions or even whole city blocks. The book also reproduces email conversations between the architect and the residents of his detached houses House Na and House N, discussing how they feel living in his buildings and the functionality of the architecture. This is a vital new manifesto of a young architect whose visions have already received much international attention.
