the studio needed more than a record of completed projects. the monograph was conceived as a client-facing tool: something to guide meetings, remain with clients afterwards and reveal the decisions, craft and technical work behind the finished architecture. it had to communicate the time, complexity and value of that work without becoming specialist or overly artistic.

looking across the studio’s projects, i identified three recurring principles: context / idea / detail. they became the editorial structure of the book, connecting projects of different types and scales through a consistent combination of photography, adapted architectural drawings, diagrams and descriptions.
