I have been enjoying the work of Naoya Hatakeyama for some time. He is a Japanese landscape photographer that is interested in the built environment. His first notable book Lime Works looked at the extraction, processing, and use of that material in concrete. And I am not sure this is acceptable, but I wrote two reviews on his books about the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami--his hometown was destroyed in that event.
His first book, Kesengawa was unusual in that it was a very personal project: Kesengawa Review
There is also a video lecture he gave on the work.
The followup book Rikuzentakata was more typical of his style and work: Rikuzentaka Review
Both of these books are the French edition. A retrospective of Naoya Katakeyama's work was published by Aperture: Excavating the Future City
Certainly Googling his name will show you more of his work
