A remarkable classic work on traditional Japanese architecture, and how the style and features can serve as a model for contemporary residential buildings.With incredible detail (as well as numerous architectural plans and drawings), author and architect Heino Engel describes everything from room functions and the flexibility of partitions to the influence of human anatomy on Japanese units of measure. Rather than exploring why the traditional Japanese house is built the way it is, Engel delves into the practical information: what the Japanese house is and how it is built.This book is not simply a description of the features of the Japanese house, but "an invitation to probe the possibilities of utilizing this architectural achievement of the Japanese…in modern living and building," according to the author, who further believes that the unique details of the Japanese house are better suited as a pattern for contemporary housing than any other form of residential structure.With a new foreword by architect and professor Mira Locher, Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, this updated hardcover edition brings this popular work to modern readers—in hopes that they may find ideas to adopt into their own home.

The definitive work on structural systems - clear, visual, timeless Structure Systems by Heino Engel has been regarded as a definitive standard work on the typology of structural systems in architecture since its first publication in 1997. Clear, accessible, and visually striking, it illustrates the interplay between structure and form—without technical overload. Focusing on archetypal structural systems, this bilingual edition (German and English) offers a visual grammar of structural forms, making it ideal for education, design, and inspiration. With over 500 outstanding drawings and model photographs, a systematic presentation of the most important structural types, and numerous impulses for creative design approaches in architecture and engineering, the book convinces both visually and conceptually. Proven for over 25 years. A work that unites tradition, opens up creative freedom, and serves as a visual toolbox.
