    Product detailed description

    Japanese Interiors - Mihoko Iida 

    The arrangement of homes in Japan is rooted in a long-standing tradition of working with space, light, and materials. Rather than filling spaces with furniture, it relies on flexibility, clean lines, and carefully considered storage for everyday life. The book Japanese Interiors by Mihoko Iida offers an expert look inside a diverse range of private residences throughout Japan – from minimalist urban apartments in Tokyo and functional work studios to traditional wooden houses by the sea or in the mountains. The author explains the concept of shakkei (borrowed landscapes), the use of wood toning, paper screens, and the principles that enable modern Japanese architecture to maintain a balance between human habitation and nature.

    What You Will Find in the Book

    The book offers a detailed tour of 28 private homes designed by leading Japanese architects, including Kengo Kuma, studio nendo, Koji Fujii, and Takamitsu Azuma. Each case study includes photographic documentation of the living spaces, descriptions of the materials used, storage solutions, and structural details connecting the interior with the garden or terrace.

    Why we chose it

    The book shows that the aesthetics of a Japanese home do not lie in empty minimalism, but in the thoughtful arrangement of objects, craftsmanship, and the choice of durable materials. It emphasizes mindful consideration of space, functionality, and the creation of a calm haven for everyday life.
