Translation

A lot of people hear what I do and ask how I make a living renovating old houses and running community spaces. Well, the truth is I don’t! Besides my urbanist projects and writing here and elsewhere, I work as a Japanese-English translator with a focus on art, architecture, history, and culture, which is a profession that nicely coexists with my other activities. My translation projects include art exhibitions at various museums around Tokyo and Japan, English text for high-end hotels in Hiroshima, and numerous academic, architecture, and art books and publishing projects. If you want to get in touch regarding a translation project or other professional collaboration, please send me an email at samueljholden@gmail.com
