A House in the Garden: Shofuso and Modernism

Stunning visual explorations of three architecturally significant sites in the Philadelphia region highlight the influence of traditional Japanese architecture on four masters of modernist architecture and design. The environmentally and culturally sensitive design philosophies of George Nakashima, Junzo Yoshimura, and Antonin and Noemi Raymond continue to influence architecture and design today.
