Synopsis

The project aim was to create an architectural publication, with an artistic take, summing up all the projects executed by a multidisciplinary design studio spanning its past decade. The scope of work spanned creating a structure for the book's content, analysing and organising data which included write-ups, architectural drawings, sketches, 3-D views and pictures, etc., whilst keeping true to the design philosophies of the studio.

The resulting book was a 312-page celebration of spatial and architectural projects. Skirting the conventional approach, the book tries to strike a conversation with the reader through snippets, quotes and interviews – right from carpenters and fabricators to clients and engineers.
