Abstract

There is a considerable body of research canonizing the history and development of the architectural book, particularly between the mid-sixteenth and mid-twentieth centuries, with OMA/Rem Koolhaas and Bruce Mau’s 1995 S,M,L,XL as an appendix. The majority of this research has focused on books authored by architects and architectural theorists, excluding many significant works that have inspired architecture book production from outside the immediate field. There is also an emphasis on book content over book design, and the future of the architecture book is left unexplored – book futures speculation seemingly the business of media theorists alone.
