Published to coincide with the opening of an exhibition of the competition’s results at Storefront, White House Redux - The Book contains a compendium of documentation related to the competition and an overview of the results. It includes texts by Joseph Grima (Storefront) and Geoff Manaugh (BLDGBLOG), a history of the existing White House and 123 selected projects as well as the four winning submissions. A jury assessed the submissions in the spectacular setting of the 45th floor of the World Trade Center Tower 7, a process documented in the book’s 30-page photoessay by Marty Hyers.
The book is available for pre-order for $39 USD and will ship on October 2, 2008, to coincide with the prizegiving and opening of White House Redux at Storefront for Art and Architecture, New York.
