Kengo Kuma's work is characterized by a delicate simplicity and minimalism, incorporating a wide range of ephemeral transparencies. Their ineffable vibrancy is achieved largely by the extensive and skillful use of screens : metal, wooden, bamboo, and even stone louvers or slates, as well as paper, plastic, and glass surfaces or membranes.His use of new, sophisticated, and efficient technologies, his sensitivity to site, and his attention to the ecological and prevailing social context of his work are all explored in Kengo Kuma: Selected Works, the first full-length monograph on the work of this enormous talent. Included are all of Kuma's most recent projects, including the Museum of Ando Hiroshige, the Stone Museum, the Horai Onsen Bath House in Atami, Louis Vuitton Tokyo Headquarters, and the Nagasaki Prefectural Museum.

This is the first monograph on the 2007 American Institute of Architects Firm of the Year, Leers Weinzapfel Associates, the first women-owned firm to be honored with this distinction. For more than twenty-five years the firm has turned gritty projects other firms wouldn't care to take on - such as power plants and maintenance facilities - into design statements they would do well to aspire to. The book is organized around a series of themes which feature eleven selected projects. It includes completed projects as well as developmental studies to discuss the work through strategies that unite site, program, and ongoing exploration and investigation of material. Included interviews touch upon the working process and technique. A foreword by urban designer Joan Busquets and an introduction by architect Marion Weiss put the work into context.
