This instalment focuses exclusively on the residential work of acclaimed architect Kazuyo Sejima, who founded Tokyo-based SANAA together with Ryue Nishizawa in 1995. Featuring more than 25 projects, and including both her individual work and projects accomplished with Nishizawa, the magazine covers a range of buildings, from apartment blocks to single-family houses, and spanning from her early years until the present. Brimming with photographs, architectural drawings, and Sejima’s own sketches, it paints a fascinating portrait of the architect’s thoughtful and sensitive approach to the spaces we inhabit, and how these function in our everyday lives.
