Synopsis
A remarkable classic work on traditional Japanese architecture and its general integrative quality, the order of space and form, the flexibility of partitions and room functions and other important or unique qualities. The author describes in detail, and with numerous architectural plans and drawings, the influence of the anatomy of the Japanese human body on traditional units of measurement and on house construction. This work is not simply a description of the features of the Japanese house, but "an invitation to probe the possibilities of utilizing this architectural achievement of the Japanese ...in modern living and building," according to the author, who further believes that the unique features of the Japanese house are better suited to serve as a pattern for contemporary housing than any other form of residential structure., A remarkable classic work on traditional Japanese architecture and its general integrative quality, the order of space and form, the flexibility of partitions and room functions and other important or unique qualities.

- y***e (1393)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller did ok - wish I could say the same for the USPS. Item well packaged, a little slow in posting, but I only live about five or six miles from the seller, so it should have come quickly. But the USPS sent it on a 3,000 mile mis-routing half way across country and back, so it arrived a week late, but in the condition listed. Seller didn't seem too concerned, but I'm not dinking them for the late delivery. Other buyers might not see the difference.
