We are proud to announce the publication of our first book about the work of the practice. ‘Twelve Halls’ contains a collection of built and unbuilt projects, published to coincide with our contribution to the 16th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia.
The publication is available in a number of architectural bookshops including the RIBA, the AA and the RIAI.
Tamsin Hanke, member of the practice and recent winner of the Dissertation Medal at this year’s RIBA President’s Medal Student Awards, has written an article for the Architectural Review, commenting on the current political and urban landscape in Russia.
