"Simplicity, moderation, constraint, and a deep respect for all things natural--such are the intrinsic elements of Korean 'style' that continue to underpin the fast-growing creative movement in a country hurtling into an era of global modernization. Although traditional influences from China and modern influences from Japan and the West have filtered into Korea over the millennia, the peninsula has maintained its own identity and is gaining recognition for its own particular 'style.' Spatial, spiritual, and material qualities are reflected in the simple beauty of its architectural design, while classic objects that immediately distinguish themselves as being uniquely Korean are used with vernacular panache in interior decoration. In this first international publication devoted to the country's architecture and interior design, authors Marcia Iwatate and Kim Unsoo and photographer Lee Jongkeun explore twenty-four exceptional homes, studios, and public and heritage buildings. Ranging from vernacular to cutting-edge creations, all are a celebration of the country's natural landscape, arts and crafts, and architectural heritage, juxtaposed with a drive towards invention, experimentation, and individuality."--Provided by publisher.
