TOKYO ARTRIP - Architecture, Revised Edition

Explore Tokyo through its buildings. Updated for the first time in eight years, this compact bilingual guide introduces about 60 works of architecture across the city, from buildings by Japanese architects to classic retro landmarks.

Part of the TOKYO ARTRIP series, in which each volume looks at Tokyo through a single theme, this revised edition of Architecture updates the information for every location and adds new places to visit. The book is organized in four parts, each guided by a different specialist: works by Japanese architects, selected by an architecture critic; buildings with distinctive exteriors, chosen by Showcase Tokyo, an architecture tour guide for visitors to Japan; the architectural design of Omotesando, Tokyo's fashion district, by the authors of Tokyo Interior Tour; and retro buildings, introduced by a writer.

Written in both Japanese and English, the entries are short and easy to follow without any specialist knowledge. Cover illustration by Noritake.
