Abstract The Executive Director of Storefront in New York Joseph Grima tips off the young Japanese architect Junya Ishigami for our attention. Ishigami's extension to the Kanagawa Institution of Technology might at first glance resemble a humble greenhouse. Stripped back far beyond the bare essentials, it has a finely tuned structure that enables it to be supported on pillars alone and elevates it to the poetic. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
