ART OF LESS
An Exploration of Essence
Editors: gestalten, Norm Architects & Aesence

Contemporary voices redefining minimalism as sensory experience.
Minimalism has become background noise, stripped of its original intensity. The Art of Less reclaims it as a sensory and intellectual practice. Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen and Sarah Dorweiler profile 20 contemporary artists, designers, and architects whose work shows that reduction is not about emptiness but presence. Organized around five elements, the book reveals how restraint creates resonance. This is minimalism as a way of thinking, feeling, and making.
WHAT TO EXPECT
• 20 profiles exploring how balance, rhythm, contrast, space, and materiality shape minimalist practice
• Essays examining minimalism as philosophy, not style, investigating emotional and sensory depth
• Photography revealing works where reduction becomes presence, from fine art to architecture
JONAS BJERRE-POULSEN of NORM ARCHITECTS and SARAH DORWEILER of AESENCE bring distinct perspectives to minimalism: one as a practitioner shaping human-centered spaces, the other as a curator interrogating the aesthetic’s emotional depth. Together, they bridge design practice and cultural inquiry.

SAMPLE COVER
Northern Exposure dissects the myth of the Canadian cabin. Moving past the settler fantasy, it reveals what the archetype has become: a powerful refusal of the urban clamor. As a sharp counterpoint to Cottagecore, these projects strike a balance between the romance of the unreachable and the raw logistics of wilderness building. They form a pluralistic, shared vernacular, a contemporary lens on the Canadian sublime articulated through the country’s remarkably diverse set of landscapes.
WHAT TO EXPECT
• A curated survey of contemporary Canadian cabins that reject cliché in favor of originality.
• Striking photography that captures the architecture and interiors in dialogue with the country’s varied landscapes
• Insightful narratives that dissect the myth of the Canadian cabin and reveal what it represents today

Rethinking why and how we build in an age of climate responsibility.
Architecture today carries new responsibilities—to the climate, to communities, and to future generations. Build Up explores what it means to build with purpose in a time of ecological and social change.
Drawing on the work of Michael Green Architecture, the book examines how design decisions—from materials to process— shape the long-term impact of buildings. Mass timber appears not as a trend but as part of a broader shift toward architecture that is thoughtful, regenerative, and built to endure.
WHAT TO EXPECT
• Photography and essays exploring architecture’s responsibility to climate, communities, and future generations
• Projects ranging from civic landmarks to housing and cultural spaces that demonstrate a new approach to building with care and purpose
• A thoughtful contribution to the global conversation about how architecture can address climate challenges while creating meaningful places to live
MICHAEL GREEN ARCHITECTURE is a Vancouver-based studio internationally recognized for advancing mass timber construction and climate-conscious design. Led by Michael Green, the practice explores how architecture can support ecological responsibility, resilient communities, and a more sustainable built environment.
Mid-century modern design continues to dominate contemporary interiors, its forms still carrying the ideals of postwar optimism. But this enduring presence has evolved into something more complex: an obsession. Objects conceived for democratic accessibility have become luxury collectibles, fueling a global culture of marketplace dynamics that would be unrecognizable to their makers.
• Contemporary interiors showcasing how mid-century classics are lived with and recontextualized today
• Profiles of iconic and lesser-known designers whose work continues to shape how we live now

A visual study of how one vehicle became a mirror of culture, craft, and imagination.
Few vehicles have traveled as far in the cultural imagination as the Land Rover. Once a utilitarian workhorse, it has become a revered design icon, continually reinterpreted across generations and geographies.
LAND explores this evolution through a design-led lens, showcasing bespoke restorations and conceptual reworks by builders, designers, collectors, and adventurers worldwide. At its core, the book examines how function becomes form, how nostalgia fuels innovation, and how a tool evolves into an object of creative intent.
WHAT TO EXPECT
• A look at the modern Land Rover movement, from bespoke restorations to conceptual reworks
• An international showcase of builders, design studios, creative brands, and collectors
• Striking photography highlighting craftsmanship, materiality, detail, and transformation

They Are Dandy continues the journey begun in I Am Dandy and We Are Dandy, approaching dandyism through photography and narrative. Carefully composed portraits place their subjects in homes, studios, and public settings, capturing style as lived presence rather than pose.

• Global portraits set in private interiors and public spaces, revealing individual codes and attitudes
• Strong visual storytelling paired with extended narrative texts that rethink elegance today
NATHANIEL ADAMS is a writer and historian with a focus on dandyism, subculture, and men’s fashion, while ROSE CALLAHAN is a photographer known for her evocative portraits that capture individuality through style.

SAMPLE COVER
Workwear has evolved from garments of labor into a foundational design language, a blue-collar modernism. This book offers a visual and conceptual map of how workwear thinking permeates contemporary creative life, shaping aesthetics across fashion, interiors, and material culture. Rather than cataloging individual garments, it explores the broader influence of utilitarian principles on personal identity and design philosophy. Through legacy and contemporary brands, alongside profiles of figures who embody this ethos, it charts a global movement that honors regional traditions while championing authenticity, durability, and restraint.
WHAT TO EXPECT
• Workwear as a design language of integrity—raw, real, and enduring
• Profiles of creatives whose lives and spaces embody utility, clarity, and purpose
• Brands and icons proving function still drives culture
DAVID HELLQVIST is a Stockholm-based writer and brand consultant with a deep knowledge of menswear, fashion history, and subcultural style. He has collaborated with some of the world’s most respected brands to craft culturally relevant narratives around product and identity. Known for his editorial insight and research-driven storytelling, HELLQVIST brings a unique ability to connect visual culture with material intelligence.

An illustrated encyclopedia of public gaffes, iconic blunders, and cultural missteps we never lived down.
Embarrassment is universal, yet rarely treated as history.

Packed with playful illustration and sharp commentary, it captures the delicious moment when confidence collapses—proving our worst moments can be strangely instructive.
