"The objective of Kengo Kuma is to erase architecture: finding harmony between natural and artificial and mediate the encounter between man and the environment. The drawings collected in this book tell the fading of architecture through textures drawn in graphite that overlap diffferent layers of land, building and sky, in a harmonious whole. Initial sketches go alongside with the study of the technical details that helped it to achieve the final result."--Provided by publisher.

This volume complements the travelling exhibition on Kuma's projects which opens in Syracuse (Sicily) in May. Kuma's creative process and his painstaking work on the material in order to transform it into a building is documented through the presentation of the most important of his architectural works designed between 1994 and 2004. Luigi Alini's essay describes the artist's formative years, analyzing the various aspects of his research through themes and compositional mechanisms that have remained constant, his study and profound knowledge of materials, and the symbiosis between architecture and nature. A selection of Kuma's writings completes the volume.(extrati de www.electaweb.it)

In contrast to the Western world, furniture does not have much of a presence within traditional Japanese architecture. Kengo Kuma believes that this unique stance towards furniture is not due solely to the practice of sitting on tatami matting on the floor, but rather also stems from the transparent nature of this architecture. Bringing large furniture with a strong presence into transparent spaces such as these would ruin the carefully crafted aesthetic. Over the centuries, Japanese designers have sought sophisticated designs that minimise scale and create delicate pieces. In this book, Kuma explores how to design modern furniture as an extension of these innovations.
