Seller's Description:
Near Fine. Köln: Taschen, 2004. First edition, first printing. Softcover. Perfect-bound trade paperback with matte printed wraps. Fine, very slight spine slant, light shelfwear, otherwise clean and unmarked. A tight copy with no interior faults. Octavo, 544 pages. Heavily illustrated in color throughout. Edited by Rem Koolhaas; designed by AMO. Text in English. "Content" is a non-linear, image-saturated follow-up to S, M, L, XL, documenting seven years of work by OMA/AMO across architecture, politics, media, and design. Structured like a boogazine, it includes essays, manifestos, interviews, ads, and conceptual spreads, arranged thematically rather than chronologically. Featured projects include the Seattle Public Library, Prada SoHo, CCTV Headquarters, and the Whitney Museum addition, among others. The book accompanied an exhibition of the same name and reflects Koolhaass interest in destabilizing traditional formats for architectural publishing.
