Publisher Notes
While trying to put the work of Yamashita into some perspective, we are reminded once again how difficult it is to adopt a straight forward theoretical approach to the work of this architect. After all, there is hardly anything in his work which reflects the age, or how his ideas have developed. People tend, for example, to consider his early work done during the 1960's and up to the middle of the 70's as being a phase of plain "masonry" or building-block style. Then, following close on the heels of this style came a slightly confused series of highly modeled buildings, which took him into the 1980's. In fact, this series of highly modeled buildings can be admirably represented by just one: the Face House. This small house provides us with a yard stick by which to evaluate the architecture of Yamashita, although while some find it unacceptable others find it interesting and embrace it.
