Shigenori Uoya Architecture Works - Layering Time in the City

A collection of architect Shigenori Uoya's works. Uoya conducts surveys and research on the transformation and current status of the structures of streets and city blocks in historical cities in Japan and abroad, focusing on Kyoto. He approaches architecture based on a temporal axis that extends from the past to the future, including the renovation of machiya and the reconstruction of cities. The book introduces Uoya's numerous works, including the Kakkyoyama Common Center for Gion Festival, which won the AIJ Prize in 2023, through photographs, drawings, essays, and diagrams, offering insights into the essence of his architecture.
