One particular, architecturally complex building type at the intersection of multiple currents of Japanese philosophy, art and aesthetics is the Japanese teahouse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a very private place of meditation, a place where only those may enter who have been invited, in which the host communicates with his or her guests through the medium of tea in the context of the strictly regimented ceremony. This volume expands the reader's knowledge of the built space that makes this tea ceremony possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe author of \u003cem\u003eThe Japanese Teahouse\u003c\/em\u003e, Wolfgang Fehrer, explores the philosophical background as well as the stylistic and spatial principles. He takes the reader on a cultural-historical and architectural journey through time, from the beginnings in the 15th century, when the art of the tea ceremony as well as the space in which it took place were recorded for the first time, to the present day, when the design and construction of a teahouse is still perceived in Japan as a great challenge for designers and architects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47471799369964,"sku":"9783721209976","price":120.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9783721209976-the-japanese-teahouse.jpg?v=1775255184"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/wolfgang-fehrer.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
