Bow-Wow

I attended a lecture last night at the Harvard Graduate School of Design given by Yoshiharu Tsukamoto of Atelier Bow-Wow. Based in Tokyo, Bow-Wow's work focuses on situational installations and architecture. Their books, Made in Tokyo and Pet Architecture, discuss strange juxtapositions of program in Tokyo as well as spaces made usable by filling in the gaps between buildings. What I found to be interesting were the ways they use sectional differences to provide new views and create larger spaces within a tight building envelope.
