The Dōjunkai Apartments (1924-1934), the Foundation's best-known work, introduced apartment living to Japan in response to crucial historical and social challenges such as urban reconstruction after the devastating earthquake of 1923 and the emergence of new working and middle classes. \u003cbr\u003e The book's texts, by prominent scholars and architects, as well as a series of original drawings and photographs from the period, bring the work of the Dōjunkai Foundation back to life 100 years after its founding. While the Dōjunkai Apartments have unfortunately been lost in the rapid changes and greedy redevelopment typical of Japanese metropolises, this book seeks to contribute to the preservation of their memory and their significance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47883714068631,"sku":"9789004742895","price":14141.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789004742895.webp?v=1781103490","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/public-housing-in-japan-the-d-333-junkai-apartments-one-hundred-years-on-9789004742895","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
