Summary "Long regarded in Japan as a master architect, Kengo Kuma entered the European limelight when he won the Italian "International Stone Architecture Award" for his Stone Museum in 2001 and the Finnish "Spirit of Nature Wood Award" in 2002." "This volume presents 14 selected projects from 1992 to 2003, including the Museum of Hiroshige Ando and the Stone Museum (Toshigi Prefecture, Japan), the Water/Glass Villa (Atami, Japan), the Plastic House in Tokyo and the GREAT BAMBOO WALL near the Great Wall of China. All works are documented with informative construction drawings, a wealth of technical data and numerous photographs."--BOOK JACKET
