Mies van der Rohe, for example, gave it to many of his friends. The reprint is enriched by a text on the history of the book by Christian Blaser, Werner Blaser's son, a contribution by Inge Andritz on Mies van der Rohe and Japanese architecture, and a personal afterword by Tadao Ando.

It was built in Nagoya, Japan, and shipped to New York in 1954, where it was exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art and then relocated to Philadelphia’s Fairmount Park. This extensively illustrated volume centers on Yoshimura’s design for Shofuso and two allied sites located in New Hope, Bucks County, Pennsylvania: Raymond Farm (1939–41); and Nakashima Studios. Each site, in its own way, is the embodiment of the personal relationships and cross-cultural collaborations among this group of architects and designers. This volume documents an exhibition of objects and ephemera mounted at Shofuso. Architectural photographer Elizabeth Felicella captures each site in a portfolio of newly commissioned images. Essays by Ken Tadashi Oshima and William Whitaker, illustrated with historical photographs, family snapshots and architectural drawings, further elucidate this important chapter in the history of modern architecture and design.

The cultural capital of Pakistan, and one of the world’s most historically fascinating cities–Lahore–has retained much of its historic heritage despite centuries of turbulence. Today it remains a vibrant epicenter of commercial and cultural activity. Since 2007 the Aga Khan Trust for Culture has been working to preserve the walled city of Lahore. This book explores every aspect of that effort, including drafting a strategic master plan, mapping strategies for conserving monuments, gardens, and temples, renovating neighborhoods and landscapes, and developing environmental solutions. It focuses on specific sites, such as the Shahi Hammam, or Royal Bath; the Shahi Guzargah heritage trail; the fabled Imperial Kitchen; Lahore Fort–a World Heritage site–and the Badshahi and Wazir Khan mosques.

Résumé:
Through a series of essays by urban historians and designers, Two Squares examines the changing role of public space in the cities of Beirut and Istanbul as they undergo major urban redevelopment. The study of Beirut looks at the redesign of Martyrs' Square, the city's primary public space, in the aftermath of the civil war and the ongoing reconstruction efforts to rebuild the center. In Istanbul, the focus is on Sirkeci Square, one of the main intermodal hubs in the historic peninsula, as it readies itself to host a new station for the first under-Bosphorus train tunnel. The two urban transformations are taken as opportunities to examine the nature of public space in the 21st-century city, the history and evolution of public life in Beirut and Istanbul, and the possibilities of using these vital transportation nodes as opportunities for new landscape, urban, and architectural design strategies. The book also includes a series of hypothetical design projects for these two squares.

Résumé:
Le sens de l'espace au japon, c'est le déploiement du monde japonais, de la terre d'un certain archipel à la manière dont le moi s'y définit dans son rapport avec les choses et avec autrui. C'est l'organisation des parcours dans un jardin-promenade, l'agencement des pièces dans l'ancien palais du shôgun à Edo, mais aussi certains principes managériaux des grandes entreprises, l'apparente absence du sujet dans certains poèmes, les repères situationnels de la morale ordinaire, et jusqu'à la remise en cause au XXe siècle, par la " logique du lieu " nishidienne, du principe d'identité qui fonda l'inférence rationnelle chez Aristote. En effet, chaque société crée son espace dans un sens qui lui est propre, et qu'analogiquement elle déploie dans tous les domaines de son existence ; mais en outre, la spatialité japonaise a ceci de particulier qu'elle a construit un paradigme existentiel : un paradigme de la vie même, à l'opposé du mécanicisme de la modernité occidentale. On en tire ici les leçons pour une architecture naturelle, en prise concrète avec les sens de notre corps dans le paysage.
