Summary:
"Space" is a photographic exploration of Japanese architecture and design in size-constricted areas, exploring imaginative, ingenious, and revolutionary solutions to space-compromised living. Masters in the art of managing small spaces, the Japanese in their design have given rise to a particular style of ingenuity. In their work, Japanese interior designers and architects constantly draw on cultural traditions, while using a modern, even radical approach. Whether in the use of lightweight partitions to create flexible spaces, deliberate profligacy to give a feeling of generosity, or strange perspectives, the results are not mere workaday solutions, but artistic and unusual ones that can turn a lack of space into a surfeit of style.

Seoul - one of the most densely populated urban areas on the planet. The tremendous pressure this megacity exacts on architecture in terms of spatial intensification, verticalization and amplification, challenges architectural stereotypes and promotes innovation. Megacity Network presents 32 projects by 16 representative Korean architects from the last ten years. Being more like mixtures and hybrids of conventional typologies, these projects range from traditional timber-structure houses to commercial and sports buildings, each one of them meeting the demands of Seoul´s electric urban landscape in its own way. Essays on the urban and architectural background complete the book, making it an exciting overview on the largely unknown new Korean architecture.

Everyone, whether or not he or she has anything to say, and every discussion, whether it is important or not, has an equal place around the table. We hope to have such a dinner and to invite to our table those who don't usually come together in real life to share their experiences, opinions, and observations. Their concerns are really also our concerns." Mad Dinner MAD is a Beijing-based studio that has won numerous international design competitions, including the Absolute Tower in Toronto. Divided thematically, the book looks at MADs designs to illustrate the freedoms and limitations of the worlds fastest growing urbanization. It explores idealism and free market realities, the role of the media and cultural icons, enacting change in Chinas political landscape, and projects for environmental protection. A journalistic approach with a series of interviews reconnects architecture to the daily cultural landscape: A taxi driver speaks on China's economy, a doctor describes his ideal architecture.

Using design examples and interviews, the book presents thirteen current positions.The publication focuses on young architects who take up extremely independent positions within Japanese architecture, as well as on Pritzker Prize winners Toyo Ito and Fumihiko Maki. Six essays by European specialists on Japan provide supplementary insights into the aesthetics and space concepts of Japanese architecture, making cross-references to Japan’s architectural history, and explaining current lines of development. The book thus combines a self-reflective approach with an outsider’s analytical view.
