Residences occupy a pivotal position in Japanese architecture. As
an extension of the residential space, the Japanese courtyard
garden is unique, featuring symbolic garden elements and designs
that date back to centuries. This book is a collection of more than
30 residential courtyard design works interpreted for the
modern-day home, sometimes extending beyond the traditional defines
of a Japanese courtyard. It not only selects a wealth of pictures,
which shows their visual beauty, but also provides technical
drawings to reflect the design in better detail. The Japanese
courtyard pursues the ultimate in being an area of calm, held in
nature's embrace, where one may reflect and rest in quietude to
contemplate the deeper meaning of life. And every rock arrangement,
tree placement, element/nature symbolised, and even scenery framed
is meticulously thought out to achieve this. This book seeks to
inspire residential and landscape designers to behold nature within
a home with fresh eyes and to let rest old methods as new
connections and perceptions are sought, in order to build a
different kind of residential space that draws on the essence of a
Japanese courtyard.
