Japan Style: Architecture + Interiors + Design

I bought this book for inspiration on how to create an aura of Japanese serenity and beauty in my home. I have been going through this book slowly, savoring every beautiful page.

Outstanding photography and text. Makes want to go back to Japan!

This book is full of great color photos taken in and around 20 spectacular homes in Japan. The emphasis is on the traditional timberframe style, but many of the homes are designed for modern living. The book briefly explains the Japanese design theory, and uses the magnificent Zan Yu So villa as an example, complete with a good floorplan. There is a brief description preceding each home, but the book is more visual than wordy. I also recommend Lenny Brackett's "Building the Japanese House Today", which is my personal favorite.

Love this book. The wonderful imagery detailing examples of the timeless design of traditional Japanese Architecture is a pleasure to pick up and spend some time with.

Great images and glimpses of interpretations of Japanese architecture.

Excellent book showcasing a variety of Japanese interiors. Many of the ideas are easily adaptable to the American way of life. Quality of book is superior.

It came damaged, realized it once delivery guy was gone. The book was to be given as a present which was not possible with the damage.

Good book. Great pictures.

Good detail and sumptuous pictures, perfect for people looking for some Japanese inspiration for their homes or just a passing interest in the design principles of Japanese homes.

A really nice book with nice detail and very informative

I would recommend this book

Gorgeous book -- makes me miss Japan less! Well worth the price.

Está perfecto como un regalo o como inspiración para un jardín tipo japonés tradicional antiguo. Las fotos son hermosas pero la verdad esperaba más variantes e ideas.
