Abstract (en)

Comments on the current state of the architectural profession in Japan, focusing on the views of the so-called "atelier architects", including Tadao Ando, Toyo Ito, Shin Takamatsu, and Kiko Mozuna. Discusses recent large-scale commissions by these architects, all of whom have been critical of Japan's materialistic urban culture.
