Feature

PLOT 08 is a comprehensive monograph dedicated to architect Junya Ishigami, published by ADP (ADA Edita Tokyo).
The volume documents Ishigami’s architectural thinking from his early residential works and art projects to internationally recognized large-scale works, combining essays, interviews, technical analyses, and project documentation.

Key projects include the KAIT Workshop (Kanagawa Institute of Technology), early experimental works such as Table and Square Balloon, the House with Plants, group homes, museums, visitor centers, and landscape-oriented projects that blur the boundary between architecture and nature.

Description

This volume explores Ishigami’s radical approach to architecture through a series of thematic sections, interviews, and structural commentaries. It traces his pursuit of extreme lightness, minimal structure, and the transformation of architecture into landscape.

Featuring detailed structural explanations, reflective interviews conducted over more than a decade, and in-depth project presentations, PLOT 08 offers rare insight into Ishigami’s evolving ideas on form, material, nature, and spatial boundaries.

An essential reference for architects, students, researchers, and collectors interested in contemporary Japanese architecture and experimental design practices.
