Résumé:

"Architect Yoshio Taniguchi designs buildings that are highly elegant and serene. A sense of clarity pervades each one. He brings to all his projects a sensitivity to site and pragmatic requirements, as well as to materials, light, color, and proportion. Over the past twenty years, Taniguchi has designed a wide range of structures, including art museums, gymnasia, libraries, schools, a hotel, an aquarium, and a tea house and garden, all in Japan. In 1997, he came to international attention when he won an invited competition to design the expansion of The Museum of Modern Art in New York." "Covered in this generously illustrated volume are nearly twenty of Taniguchi's buildings and projects, from his earliest, the Shiseido Art Museum, to his most recent, the Museum of Modern Art expansion. Taniguchi has written commentaries on each one, as well as a brief essay discussing his training and development as an architect. A second essay has been provided by another of Japan's leading architects, Fumihiko Maki. Together the photographs, drawings, and texts provide an in-depth look at the work of one of the most highly respected architects practicing today."-- Book Jacket.
