Thresholds 53: IDLE


EDITORIAL BOOK DESIGN

The MIT Architecture department reached out to collaborate on the design of their annual publication - Thresholds. The theme of the year was IDLE, and I was tasked with the editorial design from concept to print execution – coordinating with both the editors and the printers to produce 1000 copies of the publication.

The publication was awarded the 2025 Douglas Haskel Award.
