CAZA: 2011-15, the inaugural monograph of the Brooklyn-based design
studio CAZA, celebrates the first five years of the firm, and includes
photographs, drawings, building descriptions, essays, and conversations
that relate to CAZA's global architecture and design practice. The book
opens with a photo essay by world-renowned photographer Iwan Baan, who
documented CAZA's first internationally acclaimed project, the 100 Walls
Church, in Cebu City, Philippines.
With offices in Brooklyn, New York; Bogotá, Colombia; Lima, Peru; and
Manila, Philippines, CAZA has emerged as a risk-taking, forward-thinking
studio working on a mixture of residential, civic, and corporate
projects that are shaping the built environment in cities around the
world. The launch of CAZA: 2011-15 will coincide with the opening of La
Biennale di Venezia in May 2016, with a special installation at Palazzo
Mora in Venice, which will subsequently travel to various cities around
the world.
