N-Tree, Tokyo

Illusive Space

Takeshi Nagasaki is a Fine Artist and Landscape Architect who lives and works in Japan. His work has been shown in magazines such as Brutus and photographed by Michael Freeman. His home is his studio and it also became a gallery as he talked me through his current projects. His work is mainly small scale private gardens in a traditional Japanese style with a contemporary twist. Due to the lack of space in much of Japan's urban areas, the majority of people only own a small balcony or terrace. Much of his work deals with this small scale and he works with an intricate amount of detail and high level of quality. This was a real highlight of my trip to Japan. In May Takeshi hopes to hold an exhibition in London which will be well worth taking a look at!
