"Size does not have to limit. In ultra-crowded Japan, where the art of living compactly has been finely honed, constraints of space and form inspire rather than confound. That is readily apparent in this fascinating volume featuring impossibly tiny, narrow, odd-shaped habitats that have been transformed into peaceful, elegant oases. Through the innovative use of light, openness, and visual harmony, imaginative design solutions enhance perceptions of spaciousness. Clearly, size does not impede creativity but rather spurs it, yielding unique and surprising results"--Book jacket.
