Description
SANAA (Sejima and Nishizawa and Associates) takes centre stage in this extra large special edition, which focuses on the past four years of the Japanese architects’ practice, since being awarded the Pritzker Prize in 2010. Notable featured works include Louvre-Lens, Hitachi City Hall, and Grace Farms Cultural Center. The volume also presents several projects by each of the partners’ own firms, Kazuyo Sejima & Associates and Office of Ryue Nishizawa, respectively.
