Fujimori is clearly a genius! His playful and innocent vision carries through in the application of his designs, and his creations look like they would be fun to inhabit. I am inspired and held accountable to find ways to convey a similar sense of joy in my own work.
Truly amazing!
His designs are an exhibition in the beauty of imperfections.

The tea house "in the sky" says it all to me; function/art/play. Wish I still had the magazine but I appreciate the archive on line!
Please can you direct me to a site or book that explains n detail how to char cedar. I have searched with no success. I would like to build a studio in the woods and use this for the facade. Thank you. Shelley

Absolutely amazing!
I love Fujimori works and visions.With technology we can do high precision cutting and parts,in a very short time,but we lost ability and that spiritual touch,that only hands and ancient tools can achieve.He knows history but gave it a new life.That's art!
warm ~~!!
