The book is rather small in format, but thick and has no unused space - hundreds of pictures of Tokyo apartments, honest and multilayered.

It's interesting to see old computers, someone's paintings, bookshelves (sooo many books!), graffiti on the walls and messy beds - how different yet similar are living spaces through time and cultures. Photos are good quality, taken from different angles, and there are so many of them that you will definitely come back to this book over and over again to make new discoveries without leaving your own bed.

Amazing collection of photographs documenting people's living spaces in Tokyo. The book shipped and arrived safely and I cannot be happier to have this book on my shelf now.

The book itself is awesome but it came without any wrapping so the cover was scratched and ripped a little.

写真家でもなく、初めてカメラを持って撮り続けた当時の東京の生活感がする、住宅や室内の記録です。写真表現ということも大事ですが、記録としての役目も写真いは課せられていることから考えても価値ある写真集です。

5.0 out of 5 stars 美は乱調の中にあり
Reviewed in Japan on February 5, 2022
タイトルは本著の添え書きの言葉です。

中身を見ると昔の部屋とは思えないほど整っていて現代にも通じるおしゃれさがある部屋もあれば、ごちゃごちゃとして汚いなぁー笑と思う部屋もあるのですが、不思議と落ち着く気持ちになります。例えるならジブリにあるごちゃった部屋みたいな感じ?
でもその比ではないくらい乱雑になっている部屋もあるのですが。

現代のおしゃれ部屋と紹介されている西欧風やらモノトーン部屋とかはどれもおしゃれなのはわかるのですが、昔、友達の家に遊びに行った時のあの、その家族それぞれに違うその家独特の空気感、匂い、と言いますか、
そういったものが本著からは伝わってきます。

ーーここからは本著のレビューとは関係ないかもですーー

自分なりに乱雑さがなぜ落ち着く気分になるのか考えたんですが、
「自分がありのままの自分でいて良いと誰かが言ってくれているような雰囲気」があるんじゃないかと。

現代では人間だれしも善良で悪事を一つも行わず誰からも好かれる頼りにされる人間が最も価値ある人間と教育や報道で教えられ、それを実現・啓蒙しようとSNSには美談ばかりが溢れてあたかもそれが人として生まれて人としての人生の最大目標だと言わんばかりに無理矢理行わされている感が現代にはあります。
それを疑いもなく出来る人はそれはそれで素晴らしいと思いますが、反面、それに真っ向から順することができない人たちは、無理に押し付けられている善説からの閉塞感も同時に感じて心の中は反発し合う気持ちで疲労感ばかりが募る。

そんな中、上記の人間善説では真っ向から否定・嫌悪されるような本著の中の乱雑部屋。
「人間だれしもそんな完璧じゃねぇし完璧である必要もねぇんだよ」と善説に唾吐きながら言葉無くして語ってくるようなそんな気がします。

その行い自体(片づけできてない本著の部屋・・笑)としては褒め称えられることではないですが、
反面それが社会の善説に全面的に順することができない自分、出来なかった自分を肯定してくれている様な気がする、からではないでしょうか?

長々と語っちゃいましたがあくまで自分が感じた感想です。

(余談ですが、なんか現代って何から何まで“綺麗”であろうとして逆に薄気味悪い感じがします。エセ宗教みたいな。
本著の中の乱雑さから感じる“鈍感さ”を見た後に現代の“敏感さ”(SNSや記事や報道)を見ると余計にそう感じます。)
