As StudioTA, we’re thrilled to unveil our latest project “Architectural Creations through Words” in collaboration with Plug Office, an esteemed architectural firm and architectural communication consultancy firm Binat. This captivating book encapsulates five years of their incredible work and verbal expressions.
The book’s main feature is its unique approach to structuring Plug Office’s architectural practice and verbal creations through the utilization of the keywords they most frequently used. At StudioTA, we strategically structured the book’s flow around four primary keyword groups that Plug Office extensively relies on: “Inter-scale, articulation, void, and coexistence.” In addition to creating a cohesive set of keywords throughout the book, we also explained how these words hold meaning for Plug Office. That’s why we chose the fitting title of “Architectural Creations through Words” for the book.

THE COVER
The book is beautifully crafted with a cardboard cover adorned with embossed lettering. The cover is expertly bound, deliberately leaving the side stitches exposed — exposed smyth binding, showcasing a unique design element.
To reflect Plug Office’s corporate identity, the captivating shade of medium-intensity Brink Pink was selected as the cover color. Furthermore, the book is complemented by a soft touch dust jacket, ensuring comprehensive protection for both its contents and binding.
As StudioTA, we took the opportunity to further enhance reader understanding by explaining some of the specific terms used in Plug Office’s architectural practice within the text, ensuring that the book design effectively showcases the significance of these words for Plug Office.
