Description of contents
Ryuji Fujimura approaches architecture as creative relationships between knowledge and form-“chi no katachi” (materialization of knowledge) -and has been examining and exploring all aspects of design as the prototype of architectural thinking. This book features the latest architectural designs and essays by Fujimura, who tries to redefine architecture as a dynamic intellectual tool for the realization of more tolerant societies that appreciate diversity, especially in today’s social context where people fluctuate between democracy and populism while AI (artificial intelligence) handles an increasing volume of information.
