Project Japan: Architecture and Art Media - Edo to Now

Images Publishing Group Pty Ltd,, Mulgrave, Victoria, Australia, 2009. First Edition, Hardcover (Original Black Cloth). Fine Condition/Fine. 9781864703092 Olive end-papers. Titles; dedication; contents list; preface; foreword & introduction to the front. Project Japan and Art Media, Edo to Now by Graham Cooper, with essays contributed by Japanese architects Fumihiko Maki, Kisho Kurokawa, Tadao Ando, Kengo Kuma and Makoto Sei Watanabe. Following a preface by Tadao Ando, one of Japan’s outstanding modern architects, Graham Cooper sets the scene by a brief survey of the history of Japanese architecture. This is followed by an essay entitled “Mass Culture and Self-Restraint: a Japanese Aesthetic.� He then discusses the urban context which he describes as “Ancient and Modern Cheek by Jowl.� In describing modern Japanese architecture he notes Fumihiko Maki’s perceptive comment that “architects have an obligation to involve existing craft skills in the construction industry.� After these introductory essays the book contains a ‘catalogue’ (photographs) of buildings by modern Japanese architects together with descriptive commentaries. The personal contributions of modern Japanese articles are followed by a number of reviews beginning with an essay about the Japanese-American sculptor Isamu Noguchi. Project Japan examines an important period bridging the turn of the century and provides a unique snapshot of important projects in the immediate wake of Japan's extraordinary economic reconstruction. The book marks a significant peak period in the history of construction, which created considerable scope for design ingenuity and skillful application. A full-colour introduction to art in the context of architecture, Project Japan features the personal accounts of five internationally known architects. Although the book's focus is primarily towards the end of the millennium, the historical context and the years of isolation during the Edo period have also been included. Traditional buildings, classical gardens and historic townscapes are presented as keys to understanding the current scene. Size: Oblong 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. 240 pages. Dust Jacket un-clipped.

Very Good/No Jacket. green cloth covers with quarter leather spine edged by gilt line with gilt titles in gilt border & gilt publishers device; top edge gilt; deckled outer & bottom edges; a volume in the Gentleman's Magazine Library series being a classified collection of the chief contents of the Gentleman's Magazine in this case on Ecclesiology (the forms, building & decoration of churches); "The extracts are left to speak for themselves. A great number of them belong to a period when Ecclesiology was not specifically studied; but they preserve a record of facts which it may now be difficult to ascertain, because of the great changes which have nearly everywhere taken place in our churches under the specious name of restoration. On sifting the materials it was found that all the contributions to the Magazine dealing with matters Ecclesiological fell roughly under three heads, viz.; Early Church Building, Church Interiors, and Church History; and the whole of the extracts selected for reproduction are accordingly arranged under one or other of them. Under the first head will be found the very interesting discussion, or, more strictly speaking, controversy, as to whether the churches erected in England during the tenth century were as a general rule built of wood or:of stone."; including index - 327 pages plus 2 of publisher's adverts.

The Japanese House Reinvented

Thames & Hudson, London, 2015. First Edition, Hardcover (Grey Pictorial Boards). Fine Condition/Near Fine. 9780500343081 Titles, contents list & introduction to front. Japanese houses today have to contend with unique factors that condition their design, from tiny plots in crowded urban contexts to ever-present seismic threats. These challenges encourage their architects to explore alternating ideas of stability and ephemerality in various ways, resulting in spaces that are as fascinating as they are idiosyncratic. Their formal innovation and attention to materials, technology and measures to coax in light and air while maintaining domestic privacy make them cutting-edge residences that suggest new ways of being at home. Contemporary Japanese architecture has emerged as a substantial force on the international scene ever since Kenzo Tange won the Pritzker Prize in 1987. This overview of 50 recent houses powerfully demonstrates Japan’s enduring commitment to design innovation. Includes projects all over Japan by architects including ALX, Tadao Ando, ARtechnic, Atelier Bow-Wow, Atelier Tekuto, Shigeru Ban, C+A Coelacanth, Double Negatives, Eastern Design, Shuhei Endo, Masaki Endoh, Terunobu Fujimori, Sou Fujimoto, Fujiwara + Muro, Masahira Harada + MAO, Go Hasegawa, Naoko Horibe, Takeshi Hosaka, Jun Igarashi, Junya Isigami, Keiko + Manabu, Daisuke Maeda, UID/Keisuke Maeda, Norisada Maeda, Keiko Aita, Yuji Nakae, Koji Nakawatase, Satoshi Okada, Kazuyo Sejima, Hiroyuki Shinozaki, Suppose Design Office, TNA, Makiko Tsukada, Tsukano Architects and Koji Tsutsui Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. 288 pages.

Silpa Sastra

Institute of Experimental Geomancy, Cambridge, 2001. Republished Edition, Softcover. As New. hand-sewn yellow card covers; printed in red & black & illustrated by charts; introduction by Patrick McFadzean; This essay by the Rev. J. F. Kearns is an early account of the Indian art of Geomancy called Silpa Sastra which is also known as Vastu Sastra and Vastu Vidya. It first appeared in the Indian Antiquary in August and October 1876, and is therefore contemporary with the first published accounts of the very similar practices of Feng Shui in China from the Rev. M. T. Yates in 1868, Rev. J. Edkins in 1872, and the Rev. E. J. Eitel in 1873. The contents of this work cover correct choice of site and orientation, harmonious proportion, the Vastu Purusha Mandala, electional astrology, omens, propitiation of spirits and Deities. carpentry, lots of information on trees, details about the construction of implements; the right wood for the measuring rod and the correct fibre for the measuring cord, and other matters. The text is similar to other works from all over India such as the Silpa Pothi. The Rev. Kearns has provided us with a view of Indian Geomancy which assumes the reality of the supernatural and astrology and which in 1876 is still unaffected by attempts to harmonise it 'with Western physics or Theosophy. Unlike the work of the Rev. Eitel on feng shui the Rev. Kearns work does not seem to have been very noticed. Patrick McFadzean came across a reference to it in a 1927 work, Dictionary of Hindu Architecture by P. K. Acharya, and traced a copy of the 1876 volume in the basement of the Faculty of Oriental Studies at Cambridge University from where it was rescued. First Thus.

The Geomancers Guide to the Vastupurusa Mandala

Institute of Experimental Geomancy, Cambridge, 2001. First Edition, Softcover. As New. hand-bound in red card covers with red cloth spine; printed in red & black & illustrated by charts & mandalas. The Vastu Purusha Mandala is an indispensable part of vastu shastra and constitutes the mathematical and diagrammatic basis for generating design. It is the metaphysical plan of a building that incorporates the course of the heavenly bodies and supernatural forces. Purusha refers to energy, power, soul or cosmic man. Mandala is the generic name for any plan or chart which symbolically represents the cosmos. In Hindu cosmology the surface of the earth is represented as a square, the most fundamental of all Hindu forms. The earth is represented as four-cornered in reference to the horizon's relationship with sunrise and sunset, the North and South direction. It is called Chaturbhuji (four cornered) and represented in the form of the Prithvi Mandala. The astrological charts or horoscopes also represent in a square plan the positions of the sun, moon, planets and zodiac constellations with reference to a specific person's place and time of birth.

The Architect's Home

Taschen, Koln, Germany, 2013. New Edition, Brown Plastic Laminated Boards . Fine Condition/Fine. 9783836544870 Titles & contents list to front. The 100 houses presented here not only show a broad spectrum of building styles and interior designs, but also tell 100 individual stories of architects and their own four walls, opening a new window on the history of twentieth-century European architecture. The greatest challenge in designing homes is negotiating the delicate balance between aesthetics and the personal desires of the occupants. While its important for the structure to reflect the vision and style of the architect, the client must ultimately feel at home beneath the roof. It is particularly interesting, therefore, to examine the homes that architects create for themselves. If houses reflect their owners personalities, then architects own homes are like autobiographies. Location, layout, style, lighting, artwork, furnishings-every detail adds color to the story. Each of these dwellings, presented A-Z by architect, speaks more about its designer than any other building possibly could. First Thus. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. 480 pages.
