Kyoichi Tsuzuki explores a fascinating—and largely forgotten—Japanese cultural heritage: venture into the world of Japan’s love hotels in the 400-plus pages of this visually arousing volume.Published in conjunction with Museums of Erotica In the 2000s, editor and photographer Kyoichi Tsuzuki embarked on a mission to capture the beauty of a rapidly fading icon of Japanese sexuality: the so-called “love hotels” offering guests spaces for intimate encounters. In this collection, Tsuzuki chooses seventy-three love hotel rooms to profile for their retro decor in all its erotic glory and quirkiness—decor that, for the most part, has since disappeared amid changing times and aesthetics. Also included are photographs of love hotel interiors as they have evolved now in the 2020s.
