Studio Ghibli: Architecture in Animation

A very beautiful coffee table book featuring water colors, background stills, reference drawings, etc ft the architecture in the Ghibli films. I adore these movies, they are some of the most beautiful works produced in animation history. This has a lot of interviews and discussion about the various architectural styles and decisions, which are super interesting! Would be a lovely companion in rewatching the films.

I am a little frustrated by the square form factor. Mainly because there are a few two-page spreads of stunning artwork that are ruined by the bisection of the spine. I don't know why they did this. I wider format would have better lent itself to those.
