BEACH HOUSES
HOUSES OF ASIA
As Asian cities become more densely populated, dwelling spaces become increasingly smaller and, in some cities an entire apartment may be the size of a single room. The homes featured in this artfully photographed volume may be restricted in square footage, but unlimited in terms of innovation. One apartment, for example, features an efficient arrangement of kitchenette, bathroom, and laundry areas in a space dominated by white, transparent materials for an airy effect.
RYOKAN. A JAPANESE TRADITION
In the ryokan, the traditional Japanese guesthouse, building and landscape are melded in harmonic unity. The customs, art, and history of Japan become a vivid, personal experience. - Richly illustrated articles discussing art forms, ways of life, and traditional rituals in ancient Japan: architecture, painting, color woodcuts, ceramics, ikebana, select foods, clothing, no theater, martial arts, seasonal festivals, and more - Extensive glossary of terms relating to Japanese culture - High quality pictures by the internationally recognized photographers Narimi Hatano and Klaus Frahm A stay in a ryokan is far more than an overnight in a Japanese hotel - it is a journey through time that allows you to become a guest in Old Japan.
