This book introduces Kengo Kuma's approach to materials, focusing on concepts like "filters" and "pores," while utilizing diverse materials such as wood, bamboo, paper, and stone. It showcases architectural structures and details that realize these concepts. The book goes beyond traditional material handling, highlighting Kuma's meticulous attention to detail, such as integrating structural and interior materials, and aiming for "natural circulation" by reusing wood.
