### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great book: exhaustive, detailed and copiously illustrated
  

*by C***K on Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2010*

The book, taken from the larger volume "The Japanese House: A Tradition for Contemporary Architecture", describes exhaustively how the traditional Japanese house is built.Every topic from plan layout down to shoji or tokonoma proportions is covered in detail, with amazing technical drawings and lot of examples: you will be able to build your own Japanese house, from foundation stones to the top of the roof.Particularly interesting are the schemes of joints needed for every part of the house, and the continuos focus on some particular features like modular order, flexibility or standardization.If you are not used to technical drawings the book may appear a bit complex, since there are no photos illustrating the building, but everything is very well done.I recommend this book to everyone with a strong technical interest on Japanese traditional buildings.

    This a great book about the technique used in Japanese house design ...
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2017*

This a great book about the technique used in Japanese house design (who knew it was so modular?) and also much about the type of joints used and where in the house they are used. Not a whole lot about how to actually do that kind of construction but plenty about how the designs and layout work and why.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Detailed 'how to' book
  

*by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2013*

In all fairness I was expecting a little more than detailed spec drawings.  In fact, this was not the book I wanted.  On the other hand, if you are seriously in love with Japanese architecture and are a carpenter, architect or general contractor... this is the book for you.  Lots of "how to"... a smattering of "why", but no eye candy to inspire you.  Definitely for someone who is already a hard core fan of the art of the Japanese house.  It lost a star for me simply because even a 'how to' book needs more than line drawings of joint work to be great.
