Korea Style by Marcia Iwatate
With over 500 stunning photographs, this design book reveals the relatively unknown but unique aesthetics of Korea.
"Iwatate and art exhibitor Unsoo show how vernacular Korean home design and decoration with its regard for "[s]implicity, moderation, constraint, and a deep respect for all things natural" has been incorporated into the 20-plus contemporary commercial and residential buildings visited here" —Library Journal
"[Korea Style] is an inspirational piece for both the everyday and the professional student of design." —East West blog
"Don't be fooled into thinking [a commitment to minimalism] means cold or empty. These are rich, textural spaces that make you think about home in a whole new way." —Capital Times
