Shigeru Ban
Shigeru Ban (award winning japanese architect) designs and builds graceful, serene structures using modest materials. This book is only the second book on Ban in print -- and unlike the first publication, it is the most recent and complete.
Words from the publisher
Based in Japan and one of an emerging generation of young, world-class architects, Shigeru Ban (b. 1957) designs and builds graceful, serene structures using modest materials such as cardboard, paper tubes, bamboo, and prefabricated wood.
His buildings are sometimes soaring and birdlike, sometimes simple, grounded, and evocative of the Japanese aesthetic, but always they are integrated with and respectful of their surrounding environment.
