The Very Small Home Japanese Ideas for Living Well in Limited Space 1st Ed

About the Item

The Very Small Home: Japanese Ideas for Living Well in Limited Space Azby Brown and Kengo Kuma. Kodansha International Ltd - Kodansha America Inc, 2005. Stated 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. The Very Small Home is a book that surveys the creative design innovations of small houses in Japan. Eighteen recently built and unusual houses, from ultramodern to Japanese rustic, are all presented in depth. Emphasis is on what the author calls the "big idea" for each house-the thing that does the most to make the home feel more spacious than it actually is. Big ideas include ingenious sources of natural light, well thought-out loft spaces, snug but functional kitchens, unobtrusive partitions, and unobstructed circulation paths. NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
