This book, conceived and designed by Ma Yansong, offers a “journey” among the agency’s most significant projects, through photomontages, drawings, models and photographs. In particular, the following are presented: the agency’s first international project built in Canada, the “Absolute Towers” (2006-2012) – also known in Toronto as “Marilyn Monroe Towers”-; the “Harbin Opera House” (2010-2015) and the “Chaoyang Park Plaza” (2012-2017) in China; the “Clover House” (2012-2016) in Japan; the “Lucas Museum of Narrative Art” in the United States (2016-2021); and “UNIC”, the first project, carried out in France, to be delivered in Paris in 2019. A contribution by Frédéric Migayrou allows us to discover and put into perspective the aesthetic and philosophical challenges of this naturalized architecture. A portrait of Ma Yansong by Frédéric Edelmann introduces the projects presented.
