During three spring seasons between 2006 and 2008, Kazuyo Sejima and
Ryue Nishizawa taught at the School of Architecture at Princeton. The
SANAA Studios explored Japan's contemporary society as a context for
architecture and considered its particular perspective on space, the
personal and the public realm. Design exercises were situated within
the specific demographics and social variables of three distinct sites
in Japan.

This book forms an attempt to capture the atmosphere in which the
studios were conducted and register some of the findings gained out of
exploring the office, its methods and its context. As an overall
thematic it asks: What can we learn from SANAA? It tries to frame
SANAA's compassionate search for new architectures within a larger
societal context. It combines analyses, essays, documentary, design
proposals and "objets trouvA(c)s" within one book. For this
publication, Iwan Baan, Dutch architectural photographer, has revisited
the three sites where the studios took place to capture the spirit of
its context and the SANAA buildings in use.
