What is the secret to architecture that feels truly comfortable?
Architecture of Life is the first essay collection distilling three decades of groundbreaking work from the architectural duo behind the iconic Fuji Kindergarten and Roof House. Moving beyond mere blueprints, this book explores a radical philosophy: buildings are not static objects, but dynamic organisms that breathe, weather, and evolve. The authors challenge the modern obsession with sterile, climate-controlled isolation, proposing instead a return to creating "architecture of life". Through world-renowned projects, they demonstrate how environments can foster freedom, dignity, and joy. Drawing on "open monism" and Zen concepts like ensō, these essays reveal how architecture can bridge the gap between humans and ecosystems and how the authors create "generative fields" where life can truly unfold by embracing risk and nature. Part personal narrative and part philosophical meditation, this book is an essential call to rethink our built environment as an act of trust--reminding us that the most meaningful spaces are those that allow us to feel the world again.Noch keine Bewertungen vorhanden
