SOM Journal Recent Projects

Wilfried Wang2002
Since 1936, Skidmore, Owings & Merrill has set the standard for corporate design practice, producing some of the most iconic buildings of the century and shaping cities throughout the world. The SOM Journal, a new, small-format publication, takes stock of the firm's most recent work in progress and brings SOM's current design research to light. Contributors include the artist Jenny Holzer, Ove/Arup & Partners engineer Cecil Balmond, the architectural critic and historian Kenneth Frampton and architect Kesse Reiser of Reiser + Umemoto. The amply illustrated volume, designed by renowned Dutch graphic designers Studio COMA, offers a critical look at five current projects and includes an interview with retired SOM partner Walter Netsch, designer of the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
