On March 25, join MAP (Metropolitan Architecture Practice) co-founders Katherine Lambert, AIA, and Christiane Robbins in conversation at Rizzoli Bookstore to mark the release of the firm’s new monograph. Created between 2022 and 2024, Architecture x Architecture: A Dialectic captures a pivotal moment when architecture began to grapple with its own synthetic reflection and traces how machine vision and generative AI are shaping multidisciplinary design practice in the 21st century. Edited by Oscar Riera Ojeda (ORO Publishers) with project direction by Christiane Robbins, the volume includes a foreword by Kum-Kum Bhavnani, essays by Bill Seaman, Katherine Lambert, Christiane Robbins, Kyle Steinfeld, and Amanda Wasielewski, and an afterword by Aaron Betsky. MAP is an award-winning San Francisco Bay Area–based architecture firm founded in 2005, leading projects across residential, commercial, and cultural environments with architectural rigor and forward-looking spatial and environmental strategies. MAP Studio, the firm’s research lab established in 2015, investigates architecture as a media ecology shaped by AI, synthetic vision, and emerging image cultures. The conversation will be followed by a book signing. RSVPs are encouraged but not required. Seating is limited and first come, first served. Doors open at 5:30 pm.
