Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Skira Editore, Milan, 2006. First edition softcover. Signed by Andrea Branzi. A visually striking and intellectually ambitious survey of Branzi's architectural and urban theories, tracing the shift from the "strong" modernism of the twentieth century toward a more fluid, elastic, and networked contemporary condition. Richly illustrated throughout with conceptual renderings, urban plans, speculative architectural imagery, and full-color project documentation tied to Branzi's radical design practice and the legacy of Archizoom. An important late-career theoretical work by one of Italy's most influential architects and design thinkers, blending architecture, philosophy, urbanism, and speculative design. Particularly desirable signed, especially as Branzi material has gained renewed attention following major museum and design-history reassessments. Condition: Very good overall with light shelf wear and mild edge wear to wraps; interior clean and bright. Signed by the author. Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 127
