Itsuko Hasegawa

By (author) Itsuko Hasegawa, Introduction by Patrice Goulet






| book description |

Itsuko Hasegawa has never viewed architecture as being a singularand isolated creative act by one individual - on the contrary, she is convinced that building should be a social event. Hence, she includes not only state-of-the-art CAD programs in each planningand design phase, but also the outcome of extensive interviewswith future users of a given building.Hasegawa always allows some breathing space for the unforeseenand the unknown whenever building plans are transformed into architecturalsolutions for concrete activities and special functions. Her buildings- which combine clarity and playfulness and which are fullof energy stemming from the interplay of material, color, transparencyand form - are places which enhance and inspire people'slives.

This monograph presents the 16 most significant buildings andprojects in the 1990s: museums and galleries, schools, sport andrecreation centers, and apartment buildings, and includes contributions by Patrice Goulet and Koji Taki.Itsuko Hasegawa is published in collaboration with the Institut Francais d'Architecture, Paris
