Published in 2000, Japan Modern explores contemporary Japanese domestic architecture and interior design through 40 individual homes, looking at how architects and residents reinterpret traditional Japanese ideas for modern life.

Written by Michiko Rico Nosé with photography by Michael Freeman, the book is organised around themes including reworking tradition, managing space, experimenting with materials and personal expression. More than 200 colour photographs document interiors ranging from compact urban houses to experimental homes, with particular attention to materials, furniture, light and the inventive use of limited space.
