枢密院建築画帖
A 1922 Japanese photographic album published by Kōyōsha, a Tokyo publisher, documenting the architecture and interiors of the Privy Council building (Sūmitsu-in) for an audience of architects and officials. The photographs are sepia prints shot rotated on the page, showing a corridor with coffered ceilings, a lobby with terrazzo floors and wooden doors, a row of stylized wall panels with bronze roundels, and an exterior of pale stone with paired windows. A designer might take the restrained Art Deco-leaning ornament, geometric door and panel details, and the terrazzo and stone material palette from these views.
