The Classics Collection Coffee Table Book Kyoto Serenity
The lively spirit of Kyoto is best experienced during Gion Matsuri, one of Japanâs largest festivals. The parades of elaborate floats, called yamaboko, are art exhibitions in motion, presenting the exquisite local craftwork. This same attention to detail can be seen in the Japanese approach to architecture and interior design. Where Kyotoâs festivals are colourful and over the top, the ubiquitous design aesthetic is more restrained and simplified, allowing the quality of the materials to speak for themselves and offering a respite from buzzing life in the city. Through the pages of KYOTO SERENITY, Japanese culture is on full display, exploring timehonored traditions such as geishas, tea ceremonies, and flowers. - Author: François Simon - Hardcover edition with 312 pages - Language: English - Publisher: Assouline Made in Italy
