Description
Sasaki Associates is one of the world's leading interdisciplinary design firms. The firm's work touches every aspect of the built environment - Architecture, Planning and Urban Design, Landscape Architecture, Eco-Technologies, Interior Design and Graphic Design. Clients include the world's leading universities, major development organisations and cities throughout the world. Major projects include designing the master plan for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Green.
Sasaki: Intersection and Convergence is a comprehensive and extensively illustrated publication that describes the depth and geographic breadth of the firm's work. Split into three sections, Spaces and Learning details plans, buildings and landscapes that capture the future possibilities of universities; Regenerative Cities focuses on transformative new uses and neighborhoods from Ho Chi Minh City to Chicago; New Social Realities chronicles designs informed by epochal changes in human habitation, technology and lifestyle.
At once global and cosmopolitan, yet sustainable and strategic, Sasaki's projects are as varied and multi-layered as the clients and communities they serve. "Their projects pay close attention to the natural and cultural environments they occupy," writes Susan S. Szenasy, editor-in-chief of Metropolis, in her foreword to this visually and intellectually compelling look at one of the most influential design firms in practice today.
