Architizer invites you to their event
About this event
Once upon a time, architects relied heavily on print journals and books as the primary media for disseminating their work and apprehending new ideas. The advent of the digital, however, has transformed the field. While the internet offers a dynamic platform where architects can showcase their work, print publication remains a different, powerful, and often overlooked way to express architectural ideas. How does showcasing a project in a book differ from uploading photos online, and what benefits does it offer? What steps can architects take to see their work in a book/print publication?
As the 12th Annual A+Awards season draws to a close — with the fast-approaching Extended Entry Deadline on February 23rd — we invite the two brilliant creative minds behind the design studio Cantina to delve into these questions and more. As the designers of Architizer’s annual "The World’s Best Architecture" compendium and numerous other thoughtfully designed books, they’ll share their expertise on how to tell compelling stories through print.
By attending this talk, you’ll learn:
