Eat. Work. Shop.

Vibrant colour photography and compelling text make this the ultimate guide to modern Japanese life. Seven of the country's foremost architects showcase their ideas in 34 shops, restaurants, salons, bars and spas. In collaboration with a new generation of entrepreneurs, these designers are reshaping basic concepts of how contemporary Japanese eat, work and shop. The locations in this book reflect everything from postmodern industrialism to suggestive eroticism.
