Stone Hardcover – September 25, 2019

Interesting structures from across the globe and built throughout time, selected to illustrate the beauty and versatility of stone. All captured beautifully. None are presented in depth, but this is a book more about the material, not the structures in themselves.

Wonderful, and looks lovely as a coffee table book.

What a great book , even just to browse through . The coloured photographs are excellent and covers an extraordinary range of buildings and structures . Very inspiring for someone like me . Highly recommended to professionals and non-professionals .

まず表紙が石材感あふれた表装で著者の並々ならぬ石の建築への情熱を感じさせる。大地に埋もれた多様な石を建築素材として、人類文明が知恵と工夫(技術)で様々に活かしてきたがよくわかる。世界中の古今東西の石造建築を審美眼をもって撮影し、その膨大なストック(であろうと思う)の中から１建築１ショットで選び抜いた苦労を感じさせる厳選された写真集になっている。

A beautiful book, gorgeous photography. Well designed…physically solid and heavy just like stone!
