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

The first monograph on b+ reflects their wide-ranging practice, including building projects in Berlin, Minneapolis, fashion shows and furniture pieces.

b+ is a collaborative project led by Arno Brandlhuber, Olaf Grawert, Jonas Janke, and Roberta Jurcic that understands architecture as an open process, and views buildings as part of larger systems that require a systemic approach and can have a transformative effect.

Thus, b+ celebrates the potential of the existing built environment and aims to reveal and activate the latent possibilities within. This monograph includes works such as the towers of the San Gimignano Lichtenberg project in Berlin, the Midway Contemporary Art Garage in Minneapolis, fashion shows for Tussardi, and furniture pieces.

The monograph is preceded by texts by Aaron Betsky and Antje Stahl, as well as a reflection by the architects themselves on their practice within the international context.
