Shoji: How To Design, Build, And Install Japanese Screens

This is a calm helpful book. The real problem with shoji is finding straight wood. Folding screens have to be absolutely flat with no hint of a twist, because every bit of twist is multiplied to the next screen.

Fantastic book fun of info and inspiration

We found this book very useful.Thanks

I'm a joiner by trade but after reading this little book I'll seek to become a carpenter. The delicacy and flexibility of Shoji encourage me to promote them for many uses, beyond just the traditional,the modern development of glass screens for outside use is just one. The explanations of tools and the drawings mean that anyone can have a go. After making my first I decided to redesign my lounge to create a sense of Japan and the Shoji play an important part in that.
