Plot

This book takes place at the cusp of the 20th and 21st centuries, in the pre and post-September 11th world. It is a singular product of its time, packed full of words and images portraying the architectural projects and metaphysical mechanics that have defined Rem Koolhas's OMA-AMO firm over the past seven years. In the format of a small, thick magazine, this ""book"" is more of an anti-book, an informal tribute the ephemeral world we inhabit. Focusing on the theme ""Go East,"" this visual journey follows OMA-AMO from San Francisco to Tokyo, traversing our massive and turbulent planet in search of ""an opportunity to realize the visions that make remaining at home torturous.""
