Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Prolific, ambitious and dedicated to investigation, testing and prototyping, March Studio pushes the boundaries of what is possible in architecture. From houses, high-impact stores and iconic hospitality venues through to exhibitions, cultural and urban works, each project interrogates new ways to experiment with form and materiality.

What unites the projects is an incisive wit and delight in the crafting of architecture that resonate with clients, and the communities who experience these spaces.

March Studio: Making Architecture, Material & Process provides readers with a compelling behind-the-scenes view of the design process and culture of one of the most dynamic young practices in Australia today. Featuring rarely seen documentation of prototypes, models and fabrication processes and a reflective essay revealing the themes that underpin their work, this new monograph offers an immersive insight into the exuberant world of March Studio.
