Produktbeschreibung

At a time when timber is reshaping the future of architecture, 'Timbercraft' revisits its roots – offering a fresh look at the enduring legacy of traditional East Asian building. The book explores the remarkable structural logic and craftsmanship of timber architecture from China, Japan, and Korea. Through nine case studies – spanning more than 1,400 years – 'Timbercraft' reveals the precision and beauty of joinery systems that have stood the test of time. Meticulous detailed drawings and diagrams provide a rare window into these quietly ingenious techniques. Alongside illuminating historical analysis, this book offers thoughtful essays that unpack the ideas and values embedded in this architectural tradition.
