Mizoe Guest House
1989
Hiromi Fujii studied architecture in Tokyo and returned there in 1968 after spending a few years in Europe. Informed by a Western, structuralist vision, he embarked on experimental researches in the language of architecture, taking the grid as a conceptual basis. At the same time, he developed a critique of the principles of modernism. His researches into the transformation of space through geometrization advance through series. For his Mizoe project, Fujii took rectangular wall sections as basic elements to be multiplied, juxtaposed and stacked. Today he appears as the only Japanese architect to have truly engaged with Deconstructivism.
