Product Description

Product Description
Dieses faszinierende Buch betrachtet die lange Zeit unentdeckten Parallelitaten zwischen der traditionellen Architektur Chinas und Japans und den Bauten von Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Werner Blaser und Johannes Malms zeigen anhand zahlreicher eindrucksvoller Fotografien und mit klugen Essays die konstruktiven Ubereinstimmungen und grenzuberschreitenden Gemeinsamkeiten zwischen der westlich-modernen und der ostlich-traditionellen Bauweise. Ein Buch voll von Anregungen, und mit dem Tonreichtum seiner Schwarzweibbilder auch ein Buch der fotografischen Stille. Die Furche Gesamtwertung: sehr zu empfehlen. Berliner Empfehlungen Okologie & Lernen

5.0 out of 5 stars A terrific book..it is the piece that solves the puzzle!, 14 Jun 2001

By	mcmanusn2@hotmail.com (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews

I am a huge fan of both the architecture of the Far East and Mies Van der Rohe,and can safely say this is a terrific book covering both fascinating subjects.

Here the similarites of the work of Mies representing the west, and older chinese/japanese buildings are compared, revealing similarites between the two....the meeting of east and west. This book is not a heavy read,its subject matter is delievered in a clear cohesive fashion....its definately not one to be missed!.
