註釋In the most typical method of building with wood, elements are connected by using wood joints which do not require the assistance of adhesives or metal connectors. This art of wood jointing reached its zenith in Japan; but Europe too provided its share of highly influential forms. By looking at several hundred examples from Japan and 18 European countries, this book describes in great detail the history of timber architecture in terms of its technical, aesthetic and ecological dimensions. The beauty of timber structures and their detailing is captured in superb black-and-white photographs. Exciting three-dimensional drawings reveal the secret life concealed within the joints. This thorough study will prove a mine of information to specialists in this field; it will open up to the craftsman of today what has become an almost forgotten world and provide a fascinating account for the general reader.
