Description:
US: Conran Octopus, 2002. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.The spine remains undamaged. Ikebana is the ancient art of flower arranging. Each floral structure is a carefully-balanced combination of form and space; it could be said that the elements an Ikebana artist chooses to leave out or cut away are given as much thought as those that remain. Contrary to Western flower arranging, no part of an Ikebana arrangement is random. Its carefully positioned leaves, stems and blooms echo the sculptural line of modern interiors. Indeed many concepts such as space, colour, material and form, which are an intrinsic part of interior design, are also at the heart of Ikebana. This practical guide shows how to arrange flowers according to the principles of the technique, with step-by-step instructions for a variety of designs aimed at novices and more experienced arrangers.

Description:
Japan: LTCB International Library T., 2005. First Edition. Hardback. Very Good/Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Architectural historian Takeshi Nakagawa revisits Japan's traditional domestic architecture in twenty-five essays illustrated gorgeously with color photographs. The essays take on a personal warmth as the author recalls, for example, taking a nap on tatami shaded by reed blinds while "?the din of cicadas would seem to pause for a moment as an occasional cool breeze blew."? Nakagawa demonstrates alarmingly how the quality of life has suffered in Japan's transition from traditional residential architecture to modern, and he offers concrete and realistic proposals for restoring some traditional amenity in a modern context. His book is a feast for the eyes and a treat for the inquisitive mind of anyone interested in Japanese architecture, culture, or history or in comparative…
