Sakakura Junzo

(born May 29, 1904, Gifu prefecture, Japan—died Sept. 1, 1969, Tokyo) Japanese architect. He was one of the first to combine 20th-century European architecture with traditional Japanese elements. His first outstanding East-West blend was the Japanese pavilion at the 1937 World Exposition in Paris. He worked in the Paris office of Le Corbusier (1931–36) and was known as Le Corbusier's leading advocate in Japan.
