This superbly illustrated book marks Nikken Sekkei' s 120th anniversary and celebrates the company' s unparalleled innovation in local and international design. Founded in 1900, Nikken Sekkei is a world leader in architectural innovation, urban planning and technology. Instrumental in achieving the modernization of Japan itself, the company is both a national icon and renowned international creator of architectural, engineering, and environmental landmarks. This beautifully designed book is an elegant tribute to Nikken Sekkei' s remarkable achievements and contributions to world architecture over the last 120 years. A poetic photographic journey features Nikken' s approach to timeless design: its integrated perspectives, meticulous craftsmanship, and quintessential Japanese traditions. Tracing the company' s exceptional story and its enduring passion for sustainability, it will delight general audiences and experts alike. Narrated from a "micro to macro" perspective, this book features elemental shapes and surfaces that manifest into spaces and environments, encompassing both intimate and masterful initiatives. Over twenty-four selected projects showcase Nikken Sekkei' s reputation and experience. Some are iconic international landmarks and others are quietly nestled in their respective landscapes. All of them demonstrate the company' s dedication to people, communities, and the natural world.
