The venue, the lavishly refined APPARATUS studio, provided the perfect setting for an evening filled with inspiration and camaraderie. Surrounded by over 300 creatives, each sharing a passion for architecture and design, the atmosphere was electric with anticipation and excitement.

As the publishers, Benton Buckley Books, expressed their gratitude to the architects whose innovative designs graced the pages of New View, it became evident that this book was not merely a collection of photographs and philosophies, but a tribute to the art of collaboration itself. Each page turned was a testament to the vision, creativity, and bold style of the architects featured.
