Process Progress is an expansive exhibition catalogue featuring well known Chicago landmarks such as the James R. Thompson Center and the Xerox Tower. Jahn continues to challenge the boundaries of building design, technology and urban development and has seen his designs realized from New York to Bangkok, Shanghai to Cologne, and Johannesburg to Geneva. Along the way, the reader gains insight into Jahn's vast architectural sweep in this impressive survey. Helmut Jahn Process Progress encompasses material from an exhibition of the same name covering Jahn's entire oeuvre staged at Neues Museum for Art and Design in Nuremberg, Germany, in cooperation with the International Design Museum, Munich.
