ARCHITECTURE of THE JAPANESE AESTHETIC
日本の美学のアーキテクチャ
Jeffrey Zolan 1
ABOUT ME AS of WRITING, I am a THIRD YEAR ARCHITECTURE STUDENT AT TULANE UNIVERSITY. I have a PASSION For photography as well as Architecture and have been photographing ever since i can remember. However This is my first photo book BOOK This PHOTO Book came about as a token of my two week trip to JAPAN with the TULANE SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE. After returning to the STATES I decided that is was imperative to document MY JOURNEY in a way that would freeze the memory through a series of PHOTOGRAPHS as well as enlighten OTHERS of the Sensibilities of THE JAPANESE LANDSCAPE AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT THANKS THE TRIP WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE WITHOUT THE ORGANIZATION AND LEADERSHIP Of KEntaro Tsubaki and JOHN KLINGMAN.
