The compelling volume, featuring ten of WORKacs most recent projects, such as the North Boulder Library, the Rhode Island School of Designs Student Success Center, and the Miami Museum Garage, navigates through the interconnected realms of architecture, environment, and social sustainability. The book 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 Arts 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: Well Get There When We Cross That Bridge, and showcases their latest explorations in architecture and community-centric design.
