Stillness − Norm Architects: An Exploration of Japanese Aesthetics in Architecture and Design
Pickup currently not available
This richly illustrated book features dispatches from visits to Japanese landscapes, architecture, and cultural sites. It sheds light on the influence that Japanese traditions have had on the studio’s contemporary projects, such as the Äng restaurant in Sweden and the Heatherhill Beach House in Denmark.
By juxtaposing images of Japan with Norm Architects’ work, the book highlights centuries-old connections between these distinct design cultures, emphasising mutual respect and shared philosophies.
Commentary from expert collaborators in both regions provides an in-depth understanding of key design principles. Part ode to Japan, part personal travelogue and part aesthetic manifesto, Stillness takes readers on a decade-long journey with Norm as they seek to understand one of the world's most revered creative cultures.
