Educated at the University of Tokyo and Yale University, Japanese architect Norihiko Dan has run his own practice since 1994. The recipient of several prizes, including the 2014 Best Architecture for Taiwan, for Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport Terminal 1, he views architecture as a kind of cultural fruit crossbred between the architect and his or her various local surroundings, such as geography, culture, economy, or social values, and thus potentially weaving a diversified locus that can appear unique and unpredictable. Richly illustrated, the book features seventeen works and projects, with essays by Gene Kwang-Yu King and Aaron Betsky, and with a preface by the architect.

Established in 1996, Norwegian office Jarmund/Vigsnæs Arkitekter (JVA) has gained worldwide recognition. Within their work can be detected a variety of elements, from Dutch pragmatism to Swiss atmospherics, and from Spanish abstraction to the American West Coast. They are “intensely curious, forever looking for new ways and means,” and “cultivate a cheerful and undogmatic opportunism both refreshing and provocative.” Mari Hvattum combines an interview with her revealing and in-depth analysis of the practice. Included are notable projects such as Dune House, Edge House, the Norwegian Ministry of Defence and the Oslo School of Architecture and Design, and many others.

Kansai6 is a group that consists of six architects who practice in Osaka, Nara, Kyoto, Kobe around the Kansai region. The architects explore and research the architecture of Asia. Even though each of the six members has different thoughts, and practices, they share their understanding and vision of the historical awareness of Asia in larger perspective. The reason why Kansai6 was formed is to create a way of specifically representing modern architecture of Asia. The group consists of Shuhei Endo, Young Il Lee, Katsuhiro Miyamoto, Dai Nagasaki, Kiyoshi Sey Takeyama, and Akira Yoneda. This book features works and projects by each architect and their collaborative efforts as well.
