Structured in two parts, the book retraces in the first half - through a series of 126 photographs by the artist Carlo Valsecchi, taken during 12 years of travel between Italy, Germany and Taiwan - the architectural artefacts of ACPV ARCHITECTS, in a process of continuous exchange between the built environment, the landscape and the complexity of the city; the second part of the book is a collection of project histories, from their conception, to their evolution, to their completion, in a kind of logbook in which the voices of the ACPV ARCHITECTS designers themselves tell the story. The book is enriched by contributions from the art critic Francesco Bonami, the former director of the Design Museum in London Deyan Sudjic, curator and essayist Francesco Zanot and architect Valerio Paolo Mosco.
