JASO is excited to co-host another evening with the Japan Society of Northern California on Tuesday, December 1, 2026, from 5:00PM to 6:300PM PST. Guided by Steve Beimel of JapanCraft21, join us online as we explore the extraordinary breadth of contemporary Japanese architecture, featuring the work of Tadao Ando, Shigeru Ban, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Hiroshi Naito, Sou Fujimoto, Yoshio Taniguchi, Kengo Kuma, Toyo Ito, and SANAA.
Journey through Japan and around the world to discover museums, cultural landmarks, homes, and public spaces that reveal strikingly different approaches to light, materials, landscape, and the way we live. Featuring a rich selection of Japanese and international works, the presentation celebrates both the designers’ distinctive visions and their remarkable contributions to the built environment.
