In Japan Style we explore the proliferation of Japanese design and how it's been folded into the story of modernism. Our cover story is actually in San Diego, and we hit a Japanese-inspired home in Edinburgh, Scotland too. Photo by: Daniel Hennessy

Residents serve anything they wish, ferrying the food by any number of ways—from lowering sandwiches by basket to inviting patrons into their homes and handing them plates.
