The first comprehensive monograph on the crossdisciplinary practice including over 100 built and ephemeral worksSince its founding in 1981, New Yorkbased studio Diller Scofidio + Renfro (DS+R) has designed some of the worlds most revered civic spaces and cultural institutions. Their practice covers architecture, urban design, installation art, performance, digital media, and print.From the renowned High Line in New York City to the upcoming V&A East Storehouse in London to some of their earliest projects like the Blur building designed for the 2002 Swiss Expo, DS+R explores alternative strategies in spacemaking that engage and surprise on a global scale.Designed by DS+R as a pair of structurally conjoined volumes, this monograph invites readers to bridge different modes of production and reconsider the limits of architecture. The unique binding allows each volume to be read individually or in parallel by unfolding the book at the spine. Special crossover layouts link the two volumes with shared obsessions.The monograph features layouts by design consultancy 2x4, with photography by Iwan Baan and Matthew Monteith amongst other photographers. It also includes new dialogues with visionaries from other creative fields, including artist Edmund de Waal, art critic and curator Hans Ulrich Obrist, curator Paola Antonelli, actor Alan Cumming, and choreographer William Forsythe.

I was really looking forward to this book, but it arrived with a damaged cover. Luckily, customer service was helpful in sending a replacement. Just be cautious with shipping.

Innovative Perspectives on Architecture
Diller Scofidio + Renfro really pushes the boundaries of what architecture can be. This book, 'Not Architecture', offers fascinating essays and projects that challenge traditional notions. A must-have for anyone interested in contemporary design!

Interesting but Flawed
'Not Architecture' has some gems, but the organization isn't the best. I found myself lost in some sections, and the print quality could be better. Still, it's worth exploring if you're curious about modern architecture.

A Bit Disappointing
I was expecting more based on the hype. While there are some interesting concepts, I found the layout a little confusing. It took me time to connect the themes presented.
