Presented by a+t research group, ‘Before Is Before’ explains the design and construction of public space and landscape through a catalogue of strategies and actions. Rather than a universal set of recipes and solutions, they are real cases that demonstrate the methodology and approach of the more than 60 contributors, an internationally diverse group of architecture firms and studios. The book reflects on the moment “before” the project. Founded in 2011 by journalist Aurora Fernández Per and architect Javier Mozas, a+t research group focuses on collective housing, mixed-use public buildings, public space, and landscape.
