The design features four interfolded covers in different languages and fluorescent grid systems that structure the editorial content into distinct information zones.

- Mainstudio designed the book 'Deans Dialogues' for IIT Architecture Chicago, capturing conversations between leading architects, designers, and theorists. The publication features a yellow linen cover, cascading black chapter markers, and a mix of full-color and black-and-white imagery to reflect the depth and variety of the dialogues.
- Website Design for IIT Architecture Chicago
- Mainstudio developed a digital presence for the Illinois Institute of Technology’s College of Architecture, extending its rebrand from print to web. The website serves as an independent platform featuring academic information, archives, and event updates, while maintaining a consistent visual language derived from the college’s print materials.
- Visual Identity for IIT Architecture Chicago
- Mainstudio developed a new graphic identity for the Illinois Institute of Technology’s College of Architecture, inspired by the school’s modernist heritage under Mies van der Rohe.

The result is a flexible yet disciplined visual language that reflects the school’s architectural philosophy.
