(H/B) MODERN JAPANESE HOUSE

Παρουσίαση

In recent years commercial buildings have begun to look the same all around the world. Japan's are no exception. Made of glass, steel, and concrete, office towers, shopping complexes, and hotels in Tokyo bear a striking resemblance to their counterparts in Houston, Shanghai, and London. Houses, however, remain particular to place. Unique microcosms molded by local customs and social mores, the houses of one country are still distinct from those of another. They are stubbornly rooted in their own indigenous context. (From the publisher)
