Modern Japanese Architecture Part 1: From Meiji Restoration to the Pacific War

From the year 1868 of Japan’s emergence as a new nation, the Modern Japanese Architecture Part 1: From Meiji Restoration to the Pacific War course by edX illustrates the roots of modern buildings in Japan. These lasted over three-quarters of a century. Teachings and video transcripts for the course are available in English. By paying a fee, edX offers a verified certificate to its learners.

The edX Modern Japanese Architecture Part 1 course focuses on the westernisation of Japanese architecture that lasted from the period of 1868 to 1945. Intensive processes set in by westernisation include the ‘functionalist’ innovations of Le Corbusier. It also includes the ‘stripped-down’ approaches of Walter Gropius that influenced Japanese architecture. 

Spread across five weeks, this intermediate course in Modern Japanese Architecture is taught by a specially appointed professor of the Tokyo Institute of Technology. Mr. David B. Stewart is the author of several books and monographs relevant to the course and has relevant domain experience.
