Architecture Archive: Japanese Architecture (2015)
To complement the release of our May 2020 issue of a+u, we returned to our archives to reflect on four decades of architectural production with a relationship to Japan. With this brief digital series, we invite our readers to participate in this reflection, and hope that this amorphous family of work can prove useful in our present.
