“A particularly engaging collaboration ...
Maxwell’s bravura discourse — his “critical fiction” tries to write the phantom building into being — gains added authority from perfectly measured columns of professional-looking type and a smoothly integrated picture section that meets the layout standards of
an architectural monograph.”

– Rick Poynor, Design Critic

Retelling Prague (detail)

Mirrored and fading type treatment gently echoes the concept of the young writers’ reflection on the city of Prague.

Semi-playful layout with the classically laid paragraph text
(left aligned) leads the reader on a thought adventure.

Chapters are introduced with bold lines rather than numbers to graphically further draw the readers in, ‘signaling’ a sense of a bleak yet unique city.
