MANGARCHITECTURE

Absence of an Architect
Yasutaka Yoshimura

38.—

216 pages, Japanese/English

An architecture book in a radical new format, ‘MANGARCHITECTURE’ comprises seven short manga stories by seven artists, each based on a different project by Tokyo-based architect Yasutaka Yoshimura. The manga creators use Yoshimura’s work as a springboard for wildly imaginative interpretations that simultaneously hint at new possibilities for architecture. In addition to the manga stories, the book presents building drawings, designs, and data, as well as commentary on each project by Yoshimura. Completing the volume is an essay by the architect and a thought-provoking dual chronology of the history of manga and architecture in Japan.
