"Katachi Japanese Sacred Geometry (Third Printing)" is a joint work by Takeji Iwamiya, a leading Japanese photographer, and Kazuya Takaoka, a leading Japanese designer and art director. The "Katachi" series, which depicts the functional and traditional beauty of Japan, is Iwamiya's masterpiece, and was already compiled into a collection in the early 1960s, but this is a popular edition designed by Kazuya Takaoka. This masterpiece continues to depict the traditional beauty of Japanese "things," such as the beauty of history, the beauty of function, the beauty of form (shape), and the beauty of color, through architecture such as shrines and temples, and everyday items such as kimonos. This large work of over 400 pages is divided into chapters on "paper," "wood," "bamboo," "textile," "earth," "iron," and "stone." Published in 2002, third printing. Japanese version.
