    The book features richly illustrated dispatches from visits to Japanese landscapes, architecture and cultural sites, shedding light on the influence Japanese traditions have had on the Norm Architects’ projects. Juxtaposing images from Japan with the studio's work, the book highlights the centuries-old connections between the distinct design cultures, emphasising mutual respect and shared philosophies. Includes insightful commentary from expert collaborators in both regions. At once an ode to Japan, a personal travelogue, and an aesthetic manifesto, "Stillness" takes readers on Norm’s decade-long journey as they’ve sought to understand one of the world’s most revered creative cultures.
