Naomi Pollock on The Japanese House Since 1945

Imagine a rowhouse whose courtyard separates the kitchen from the bedroom. Or a tiny, triangular tower of rooms stacked one above another. Quirky, experimental, and utterly fascinating, the houses produced in Japan since the end of World War II are among the most exceptional in the world, and they are also family homes.

During this event, architect and author Naomi Pollock will discussed The Japanese House Since 1945, a cohesive chronology of iconic Japanese houses. Her book presents the most compelling architect-designed homes, highlighting developments in form, material, architectural expression, and family living over almost eight decades.

The presentation was be moderated by Iker Gil and followed by a reception and book signing. A limited number of copies of The Japanese House Since 1945 are available for purchase on our site.
