Architecture of Life: First English Essay Collection from Fuji Kindergarten Architects
ORO Editions has published 'Architecture of Life', the first English-language collection of essays by the internationally renowned architecture duo known for the Fuji Kindergarten and the Roof House. The book, released on August 10, 2026, presents a philosophy that is both radical and evident: creating comfortable spaces that enhance human experience with freedom, dignity, and joy. Drawing on the authors' life experiences and the trajectories of those who inspired them, the essays introduce cultural and philosophical concepts from Japan and elsewhere, revealing how architecture can connect people to each other and the world. Part personal narrative and part philosophical meditation, the book serves as both a critique of current circumstances and a manifesto for new approaches. The publication is available in English, with the original Spanish version accessible online.
