Description
An exploration of ten recent projects by WORKac and their connections to the surrounding environment.

Buildings for People and Plants by WORKac is a thoughtfully curated architectural exploration by Amale Andraos and Dan Wood, the New York-based design firm's co-founders. The compelling volume, featuring ten of WORKac's most recent projects, such as the North Boulder Library, the Rhode Island School of Design's Student Success Center, and the Miami Museum Garage, navigates through the interconnected realms of architecture, environment, and social sustainability.

The book includes an introductory essay by Andraos and Wood and a visual presentation that showcases how their architectural projects engage with their specific cultural and environmental contexts to support both people and plants. It also includes a conversation with the two architects, conducted by the Orange County Museum of Art's director Heidi Zuckerman, a critical essay by architecture critic Nicolai Ouroussoff, and an appendix with detailed information on the featured projects round out this volume. It is a visual treat that extends the narrative of their previous book, WORKac: We'll Get There When We Cross That Bridge, and showcases their latest explorations in architecture and community-centric design.
