Anime Architeture: Imagined Worlds and Endless Megacities

by Stefan Riekeles

Anime has been influencing cinema, literature, comic books, and video games around the world for decades. Part of what makes anime so popular are the memorable and breathtakingly detailed worlds designed by the creators, from futuristic cities of steel to romantic rural locales. Anime Architecture presents the fantastic environments created by the most important and revered directors and illustrators of Japanese animated films, such as Hideaki Anno, Koji Morimoto, and Mamoru Oshii.

This beautiful book, along with many others, can be found up in the Hatch. The Hatch Reading Room is here for you to de-stress, work on projects, take a break, and enjoy a quiet view of campus. Plenty of open tables, comfortable chairs, and of course, books, are waiting for you up on the 4th floor of Marvin from 9-5 Monday - Friday. 📚
