Résumé:
An exploration into media and architecture, Everything All at Once features the experimental work of the New York City-based studio MOS. By exchanging plans and sections for software and film, the firm moves beyond the static forms of traditional architectural discourse and exposes a working technique that is inventive, playful and primitive. In this vibrant publication, partners Michael Meredith and Hilary Sample weave together a visual narrative of computation, representation and design. Showcasing over twenty five projects on screen and in built form, including the acclaimed thatch covered structures from the 2009 PS1 After Party and the mylar weather balloon installation at the 2010 Venice Biennale, the book provides a unique look at the process of one of the most innovative firms at work today.

Résumé:
Il existe toutes sortes de maisons : des grandes, des petites, des bizarres, des vieilles… Mais comment décider laquelle est idéale pour vous? Dans « Maisons à vendre », une famille voyage à travers l’histoire de l’architecture en quête de la maison parfaite. Ne trouvant pas la perle rare, ses membres décident d’en construire une ensemble. Mais il y a toujours plus, à ajouter, à modifier, jusqu’à ce que finalement, ils se rendent compte que la maison idéale n’existe pas; c’est la recherche qu’ils ont en fait aimé. Ils terminent où ils ont commencé, imaginant la suite. « Maison à vendre » a été écrit et illustré par Michael Meredith et Hilary Sample, de MOS. Le livre est à la fois un glossaire de la forme architecturale pour enfants et la véritable histoire d’une curiosité perpétuelle.

Résumé:
Their work has been described as experimental and innovative, qualities front-and-center in their previous collection Everything All at Once. In just ten years, Michael Meredith and Hilary Sample have established MOS as one of the leading young architecture practices in the country. Selected Works, the first monograph on the built work of the New York–based firm, follows the design studio's evolution from their earliest works to their most celebrated houses and institutional buildings. The thirty-two projects featured range from the sophisticated to the absurd—from the serene Floating House in Ontario, Canada, and the sustainable Kathmandu Orphanage in Nepal to the playful puppet theater at Harvard's Carpenter Center and the appropriately named Rainbow Vomit installation in New York, a digital, interactive, computational heap of building blocks in a constant state of near collapse. The collection also includes a selection of the couple's unorthodox writings, including their satirical "Office Policy" employee manual.

Résumé:
At a moment when the world's population increasingly lives in urban settings, the public health of cities--or the intersection of stress and wellness with architecture and urbanism--is a matter of pressing concern for designers. Questions Concerning Health reports on this critical terrain, focusing particularly on Johannesburg, South Africa (a notable test case in which the term "social equivalency," used by epidemiologists, also carries considerable historical and spatial resonance). Among the book's research findings is that health is an intensively local phenomenon that demands intensively local responses in the form of more sensitive architectural typologies as well as urban planning.

Résumé:
"Laboratorio de Vivienda" presents the 32 projects selected and built, including research, drawings, and descriptions by the architects. It considers the problem of low-income housing by bringing thoughtful attention and expertise of architects, considering how these proposals, assembled into a collective, would work together toward creating not an estate but a community for Apan, presenting a model of Housing as a Garden. In 2017, Mexico’s Institute for the National Fund for Workers’ (INFONAVIT) Center for Research for Sustainable Development launched a program to solicit new approaches to affordable housing. To better understand the possibilities, and to better educate developers, workers, and students about the research, INFONAVIT engaged with MOS to develop a master plan for a campus of 32 built prototypes and design an education center to promote awareness and study of workers’ housing typologies.
