APOLLO Timeless

Immerse yourself in the world of harmonious residential design through the Japan-based architecture studio, Apollo. Apollo takes readers on an immersive journey through the studio’s distinctive architectural philosophy, highlighting central courtyards, natural elements, and restrained, minimalist forms. This thoughtfully curated volume showcases Apollo’s most emblematic projects, with rich photography and insightful commentary that pull back the curtain on the design process. Each home featured in Apollo is a testament to the studio's dedication to crafting spaces that foster a sense of peace and privacy, transforming everyday living into an artful experience. Architect Satoshi Kurosaki launched Tokyo-based Apollo in 2000. Almost a quarter of a century later, Apollo has produced over 200 structures in Japan and around the world. Apollo constantly produces characteristically novel solutions by incorporating memories and unique interpretations of the story of each location, and with thorough, repeated subtraction that begets tenacious luxuriousness. This book showcases Apollo’s achievements to date, while introducing its shared core values. The 14 residences shown incorporate their own narrative; unmasking the ideas they embody reveals the unique dignity of each one. Analysing the 10 key words that define Apollo gives insight into its resolute philosophy. Each stage of Apollo’s creations to date forms a line that provides a perception of its concepts and history, along with its future direction.
