IBOS & VITART, CITÉ DE L’ARCHITECTURE

Editorial design of a book dedicated to the work of Ibos & Vitart Architects, created in conjunction with their exhibition at the Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine in Paris.

The concept of the publication is based on the gradual transformation of typography throughout the reading experience. The text begins on the front cover and progressively decreases in size until reaching the center of the book, which is dedicated to a curated selection of architectural façade projects. The final section presents the English texts following the reverse movement, with the typography gradually increasing in size until it reaches the back cover.

Conceived as an editorial object, the book offers a dynamic reading experience in which the layout itself guides the reader’s journey through the content. Typography becomes both a narrative and spatial device, reinforcing the relationship between the publication’s structure and the architectural work it presents.

Project developed with Ruedi Baur, 2019.
In collaboration with Ibos & Vitart Architectes and the Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine.
