Résumé:

"The buildings of 'Made in Tokyo' are not beautiful. They are not perfect examples of architectural planning. They are not A-grade cultural building types, such as libraries and museums. They are B-grade building types, such as car parking, batting centres, or hybrid containers and include both architectural and civil engineering works. They are not 'pieces' designed by famous architects. What is nonetheless respectable about these buildings is that they don't have a speck of fat. What is important right now is constructed in a practical manner by the possible elements of that place. They don't respond to cultural context and history. Their highly economically efficient answers are guided by minimum effort. In Tokyo, such direct answers are expected. They are not imbued with the scent of culture; they are simply physical 'building'. Moreover, Tokyo is really such a contradictory place, because it is in fact these buildings which most clearly reflect it's quality of urban space, whereas the translation of issues of place through history and design seems like a fabrication - This is Tokyo."--Page 12.
