Tezuka Architects: The Yellow Book - Softcover
Building on the wide interest in the popular TED talk, “The Best Kindergarten You’ve Ever Seen,” delivered in 2015 by Japanese architect Takaharu Tezuka (born 1964), Tezuka Architects: The Yellow Book is an in-depth, monographic study of the work and design philosophy of Tezuka’s architecture studio, cofounded with his wife Yui Tezuka in 1994.
Envisioned as a pocket guide and reader in scale and feel, Tezuka Architects introduces projects spanning the past 12 years, from the Roof House (2001) up through the recently completed Child Chemo House (2013). The Child Chemo House shares with many of the practice’s other projects a fundamental belief that architecture has the capacity to positively affect humanity, seen also in the Asahi Kindergarten (2012), which contributes to the reconstruction of the Miyagi Prefecture after the devastating 2011 tsunami.

Book Description Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Mit seinem TEDtalk 'The best kindergarten you've ever seen' hat der japanische Architekt Takaharu Tezuka 2015 für Aufsehen gesorgt. Tezuka Architects: The Yellow Book gibt nun zum ersten Mal in Buchform Auskunft über die Entwurfsphilosophie des international bekannten Architekturbüros. Basierend auf einem Vortrag Tezukas an der Harvard University Graduate School of Design (GSD), führt der handliche Band am Beispiel bahnbrechender Projekte der letzten Jahre in die Gedankenwelt der Architekten ein. Bauten wie das Roof House (2001), das Child Chemo House (2013) oder der Fuji Kindergarten (2007) belegen eindrucksvoll die gestalterische Kraft von Takaharu und Yui Tezuka und bezeugen, wie Architektur aktiv zum Bau einer besseren Gesellschaft beitragen kann.
