In the last two decades, the Japanese architect Yoshio Taniguchi has designed a wide range of structures. In 1997 he came to international attention when he won an invited competition to design the expansion of the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Taniguchi provides commentaries on each one, as well as a brief essay on his development as an architect. Fumihiko Maki, another of Japan's leading architects and a Pritzker Architecture Prize laureate, provides additional insights into Taniguchi's work.
