The Making of Making (Architecture)

This catalogue shows the exhibition The making of making (architecture) by MIAS architects, exhibited at the Design Museum of Barcelona.

The exhibition analyses the design processes of MIAS studio, founded by Josep Mias in 2000 and proposes a route for the design process through seven concepts: Between lines, Everything could happen, Oniric spaces, Assemblage, Architecture to take away, X-RAYS and Ripped Surfaces. These concepts appeal to the most basic actions of the creative and productive process of study.

‘Deeply honed and exquisitely crafted, this prolific demonstration is a study in the making of making architecture, through its earliest and slightest emergence as marks on a plane, to its flights in space as a drawing without paper, to its rigorous rehearsal as an investigation of assembly and composition’ -Bob Sheil

With Contributions by Peter Cook, Izaskun Chinchilla, Bob Sheil, Josep Mias and Marina Povedano. Published by Actar Publishers & Ajuntament de Barcelona, Museu del Disseny In English & Catalan
