The author, Kenya Hara, takes up the more universal theme of "White," which encompasses both "empty" and "void," as a clue to exploring the Japanese aesthetic sense. And The author carefully introduces various examples of how the Japanese "White" may function as a receptacle for countless imaginations in the exchange and distribution of images.All contents are translated into English. Comments from usWe, as Japanese, were very freshly surprised to see this latent feeling revealed in words in this book. We believe that the Japanese awareness described in this book is latent in contemporary designers and architects, and sometimes clearly manifested in their expressions. ------------------------------Publisher: Chuokoron-Shinsha, Inc., TokyoPublished in 2008Hardcover with dust jacket , approx 140 pagesSize: approx 176mm X 226mm X 23mm (6.9 inches X 8.9 inches X 0.9 inches) Weight: approx 910gLanguage: Japanese, all contents are translated into English SHIPPING:This item is in stock in our store and has been inspected.
