Japanese architect Shuhei Endo can be defined as an architect of steel since he distinctly favours this material in the buildings he designs and continually experiments with its infinite possibilities. His works are apparently weightless and communicate a sense of liberty: undulating sheets of steel are twisted into spirals and wrapped around buildings in overlapping layers, like petals of flowers, or arranged on different levels to create a membrane around open spaces. This approach is most evident in the "great roofs" that house Endo-designed offices, such as Rooftecture N (Nisinomiya, Hyogo, 1998), or spaces for relaxation and meetings, such as Rooftecture T (Fukui, 1997), as well as private homes, such as Springtecture H (Harima, 1998) and Rooftecture M (Maruoka, 2001). Born in 1960 in Shiga Prefecture, Japan, he graduated in 1986 from the Kyoto School of Art and then joined the Osamu Ishii & Biken Associates architectural studio. In 1988 he founded the Shuhei Endo Institute in Osaka and began teaching at Kinki University, Kobe Design University and the Fukui Institute of Technology.

Condición: Sehr Gut. Zustandsbeschreibung: untere Ecke und Rückenkante leicht bestoßen, Schutzumschlag etwas lädiert/lower corner and spine slightly bumped, dust jacket somewhat damaged. Paramodern Architecture. Edited by Hiroyuki Suzuki. Texts by Shuhei Endo and Hiroyuki Suzuki. Translation: Richard Sadleir. This book offers readers the first complete monograph dedicated to the work of Shuhei Endo. Now only in his forties, Endo has recently received extensive coverage in the international architectural press for the originality of his buildings. Skintecture, Springtecture, Rooftecture are some of the labels he uses to indicate the formal and structural features of his work, mostly made in highly original fashion from corrugated sheet metal and other explicitly "cheap" materials. Endo uses the two concepts Renzokutai and Bunyutai, which can be translated as "continuity" and "partial sharing" or "sharing of parts." The terms express Endo's interest in building components that are quintessentially ambiguous and architectural arrangements whose origin Suzuki explains as the expression of a heterodox relationship between tradition and experiment. 211 Seiten mit zahlreichen Farb- und s/w-Abb., Großformat, Leinen (Electa Architecture 2003).
