In the tradition of the cahiers de voyage of Le Corbusier –with whom he worked in his early years– this book gathers the notes taken by Teodoro González de León during a trip to Japan in 2006. In the small moleskin format of a travel diary, the observations of the architect are illustrated with beautiful “old-fashioned” sketches and the occasional photograph. A pilgrimage through the traditional and contemporary architecture of Japan translated into the graphic idiom of this important Mexican architect, whose hand-drawn map at the end of the book offers a bird’s-eye view of his tour of the Japanese archipelago. A book that will convey to the reader the restless enthusiasm of the traveler.
