SHIGEMORI Mirei (1896-1975) was one of the most prominent Japanese
garden designers during the Showa period (1926-1989). Shigemori’s
designs often appear as avant-garde while respecting traditional designs
which might be the key as to why his gardens are highly valued both
all around Japan and the world. This book introduces about thirty of
SHIGEMORI’s gardens. The dynamic rock arrangements and modern
design will surely capture the viewers’ heart.
