Volume 21 in the Contemporary Architects Concept Series assembles
numerous projects and presents them in a flexible structure, so that
readers can begin anywhere. The overarching concept established by
Kazuhiro Kojima and Kazuko Akamatsu known as Coelacanth and Associates,
based in Tokyo and Nagoya is that many different elements in
architecture may be regarded as its essence. Through this selection of
projects and works, among them the Oslo National Museum, Yamoto Town
Hall, and Shibuya South Block Project, they explore themes like gravity
and floating, materials, reflection and absorption, experience of space,
distance, and magic of space.
