Erik Gunnar Asplund

A rare and richly illus­trated mono­graph on Swedish archi­tect Erik Gunnar Asplund, published by Kajima in 1983. This bilin­gual edition (Japan­ese with English trans­la­tions) offers a compre­hen­sive visual and textual explo­ration of Asplund’s work, from his early Nordic Clas­si­cism to his pivotal role in shaping Scandinavian modernism.

Featur­ing photographs, archi­tec­tural sketches, and detailed draw­ings, the volume provides invalu­able insight into iconic projects such as the Stock­holm Public Library and the Wood­land Ceme­tery. The book’s high produc­tion quality and archival depth make it a signif­i­cant refer­ence for archi­tects, histo­ri­ans, and collec­tors of modernist architectural literature.

A scarce and sought-after title, this edition remains one of the few in-depth surveys of Asplund’s oeuvre avail­able in English.
