This uniquely presented monograph combines a highly illustrated album with the author's incisive, personalized narrative, explaining the bold concepts of many single and multifamily residential projects and public buildings, e.g. Warsaw's German embassy, Dublin's U2 tower, and a bridge over Adige River in Verona, Italy, as well as contemporary museums and galleries, including the just completed Plato Contemporary Art Gallery in Ostrava, Czech Republic, as well as many others The International Jury of Museum of Architecture and Design in Chicago has placed several KWK Promes's houses on the list of the best houses in the world; Konieczny's own house, the 'Ark' received a Wallpaper* Design Award for Innovative Design; and Robert Konieczny has been awarded multiple times for his highcaliber achievements, including by the Minister of Culture in Poland for his outstanding achievements in the field of architecture The book is filled with fullcolor photographs and detailed plans and diagrams, as well as incisive commentary by renowned architectural writer Philip Jodidio on the innovative process of this firm's practiceRobert Konieczny, founder and principal of KWK Promes, in Poland, specializes in projects renowned for ingenious concepts and unique design. His works examine closely the nature and interpretations of spatial journeys for the viewer or those who inhabit the space, be it for residential works, public buildings, or international cultural festivals and exhibitions, such as the Venice Biennale. The firms work especially with kinetic architecture fuses seamless design principles with inventive concepts, namely movable structures that both catch light and create a uniquely experiential environment. A leader in industry innovation, Konieczny and KWK Promes was awarded the World Architecture Festival Award for the best building in 2016.Our designs are shaped by logic. Inside these pages we showcase a unique and detailed prcis that narrates the story of the concepts behind our buildings. Robert KoniecznyThe ideas expressed by Robert Konieczny are quite radical and surprisinghis forms are unexpected, and often closed or heavy at first sight. Though the Polish context, in terms of climate, history, and sociology may imply such solutions, KWK has laid out a series of concepts that could readily be applied to other places, surely generating other types of buildings. This is not a style so much as it is an intellectual construct. Philip Jodidio
