Rem Koolhaas: S,M,L,XL
Signed by Rem Koolhaas, this first-edition copy of S,M,L,XL collects two decades of writing by the architect and projects by his firm, Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA). Edited by Jennifer Sigler, the innovative book is a tour de force of graphic design by Bruce Mau that complements its visionary presentation of architectural concepts photographed by Hans Werlemann. Its title indicates its organizational framework: “Small” and “Medium” sections focus on domestic and public-scaled projects, “Large” examines what Koolhaas called “the architecture of Bigness,” and “Extra Large” comments on issues of urban design. Accompanying these manifestos and projects is an imaginative dictionary of definitions and cultural commentary that runs throughout.
