This is a large-format illustrated monograph presenting the Sukiya tradition-the refined, harmonious style of Japanese residential architecture-in modern reinterpretations. The book combines evocative black-and-white and some color photographs and architectural plans by noted photographer Yukio Futagawa with insightful explanatory text by architectural historian Teiji Itoh, the translation being by Richard L. Gage. It showcases how the classic Sukiya aesthetic is preserved and re-imagined in twentieth-century Japanese architecture, with richly detailed visual and textual analysis.
