With cross-references of chapters and projects, it vividly conveys 3deluxe’s visual and theoretical creative approach. Essays by renowned authors complement the descriptions of projects, sparking lively debate on current trends in design and architecture, making this expansive monograph far more than a conventional presentation of their work.
