The book explores the process and thinking of the architectural practice ELASTICOFarm, led by Stefano Pujatti and based in Turin and Toronto. This volume provides a cross section of ELASTICOFarm’s conceptual approach through the reading of built projects and competitions, and is accompanied by an intimate documentation of the studio. The making of the book was approached as an architectural project in itself, where writing was one part of a broader research effort. Published by LetteraVentidue, this title forms part of the series Imprinting, curated by Antonino Saggio, on contemporary Italian architecture.
We are delighted to welcome Michela Falcone, Stefano Pujatti, and Rory James Sherlock to the AA Bookshop to mark the launch of the new edition of this title.
