- Editorial Design for Wiel Arets Exhibition Book
- Mainstudio designed the book 'Stills' for an exhibition on Dutch architect Wiel Arets, chronicling twenty-eight years of his architectural practice. The design employs a chronological structure where typography and imagery form a visual timeline, with deconstructed chapter titles unfolding across silver spreads to reflect the passage of time.
- Editorial Design for B’ Tower Book
- Mainstudio designed a book documenting the B’ Tower in Rotterdam by Wiel Arets Architects. The publication combines staged photographic stories by Ellen Kooi and fictional texts by Katrien Van den Brande, structured through a precise grid system that mirrors the building’s facade. Silver-on-black printing emphasizes the fictional dimension of the narratives.
- Editorial Design for Un-Conscious-City Book
- Mainstudio designed the book 'Un-Conscious-City' for Wiel Arets Architects, exploring Tokyo’s dreamlike atmosphere through material and structural choices. Lightweight, semi-transparent paper, Japanese binding, and time-based chapter divisions evoke a sense of travel, reflection, and temporality. The burnt wood-textured cover references traditional Japanese architecture, merging concept and form.
- Website Design for Wiel Arets Architects
- Mainstudio created a dynamic and interactive website for Wiel Arets Architects, reflecting the studio’s architectural precision and intellectual depth. The design employs a magazine-like grid, monochrome palette, and evolving navigation system to mirror the restrained complexity of the firm’s work across digital platforms.
