Résumé:
When Yoshi Tsukamoto and Momoyo Kaijima of the Tokyo-based firm Atelier Bow-Wow arrived at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design as guest professors, in the winter of 2016, they challenged students to deeply consider their surroundings and record their reactions as a large pencil drawing. In this public drawing time is suspended and expanded; futures, presents, and pasts converge; and the act of drawing becomes an instrument of dialogue and engagement. Tsukamoto and Kaijima later spoke about the project with K. Michael Hays, Eliot Noyes Professor of Architectural Theory at Harvard s Graduate School of Design, and reflected on representation, occupation, and the democracy of architecture. They unfolded their concept of an ecology of livelihood, wherein shadowless figures, objects, and spaces coexist with construction details. Explaining their belief in the behavioral capacities of humans, architecture, and nature, Tsukamoto and Kaijima revealed the generosity of spirit in their work, and the importance of pushing such capacities to their most yielding limits.

It first started as an urban research project, which resulted in the publication Made in Tokyo, the exploration of the hybrid urban environment, and Pet Architecture Guidebook, a typological study of extremely tiny buildings, which illustrate the spatial practice in the course of rapid urban transformation. Public Space by Atelier Bow-Wow, presents the works and thoughts of Atelier Bow-Wow on public space, focusing on the following projects: Miyashita Park, Kitamoto KAO and BMW Guggenheim Lab.

Résumé:
In this second volume, Atelier Bow-Wow shifts from studying the behavioural characteristics of the window typology to investigating their origins, history, and relationships. How humans experience encounters with each other and the spaces inside and outside buildings is key to deciphering how combinations of context and environmental factors lead to various functions and typologies in different regions. From Belgium, France, Germany, and Spain, to Vietnam, Hong Kong, China, and Japan, the quest spans a variety of buildings and streetscapes, encompassing both the contemporary and historic. The result is a remarkable collection of photographs and analyses.

Résumé:
This volume presents hundreds of manifestations of one aspect of Japanese architecture: the window. Covering all manner of examples, typologies, and functions, the richly illustrated anthology gives a technical analysis of each, with photographic views from both exterior and interior, as well as diagrams detailing how interior space and functions correlate with the openings in the various buildings’ facades. Whether for light, ventilation, accessibility, permeability, (in)visibility, or a combination of these things, the humble window is revealed in its crucial role in determining how a specific architectural object is designed, constructed, perceived, and utilised.

Résumé:
Yoshiharu Tsukamoto and Momoyo Kaijima of Atelier Bow-Wow have built a career confronting the challenges posed by dense urban environments. Their city houses—enclosed in vibrant, idiosyncratic forms—are distinguished by their capacity to accommodate the changing needs of the occupants. A basic feature is the permeability of interior spaces, where public and the more intimate places co-mingle, often in vertical structures with a total floor area that rarely exceeds 200 square meters. Atelier Bow-Wow has a dedicated research division that has published a number of treatises on vernacular architecture. This book will feature their newest research, including plans, as well as explorations on mobile or portable projects. The book includes key projects such as the Mini House, The Sway House, the Juicy House, House and Atelier Bow-Wow, the House Tower, and the Aco House.

Résumé:
Yoshiharu Tsukamoto of Atelier Bow-Wow tours the world in his quest to seek out and analyse the behaviour of windows. Featuring gorgeous photographs of hundreds of these objects and their associated interior and exterior spaces – from the mundane to the beautiful and enigmatic – the book explores how windows can create uniquely cultural, urban, and social spaces, as well as stimulate activities like rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation. By focusing on this architectural typology, Tsukamoto offers commentary on the allure and fascination of windows, and how they help to generate positive spaces within buildings, which in turns leads to an energising and refreshing sense of living.

Résumé:
A l'occasion de l'exposition « La Maison Magique », les architectes de l'Atelier Bow-Wow (Yoshiharu Tsukamoto, Momoyo Kaijima et Yoichi Tamai) et Didier Fiuza Faustino ont choisit de travailler un matériau commun dans une logique de production cyclique. Ce matériau, le bois, utilisé dans la construction des deux architectures, est prélevé au Portugal et y sera réexpédié dès la fin de l'exposition pour une deuxième vie. Bien que les architectes aient décidé de travailler cette même matière, les deux habitacles qu'ils présentent offrent aux visiteurs deux réflexions complémentaires. Le catalogue est illustré par une galerie de photographies de l'exposition et du making of de cette installation inédite composée de deux maisons, Chigi House et A home is not a hole. Les plans d'exécution de ces deux structures à la croisée de l'architecture et de l'art sont également reproduits.
