The first monograph by the studio, produced in collaboration with Arquine of Mexico City. With texts by Jimenez Lai, John Leroux and a conversation with Miquel Adrià and Rozana Montiel.The book chronicles the birth of the studio and how it developed to become one of the most influential young practices in the world – through a deep respect for precedent, context, and traditional processes alongside incredible people. Ten completed houses in the Nova Scotian landscape are featured in-depth through sketches, construction photos, drawings and physical models.
