OMA NY: Search Term

Founded by Rem Koolhaas in 1975, the Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA) is considered one of the most influential and successful architecture firms worldwide. OMA describes itself as a firm that operates within the traditional boundaries of architecture and urbanism and applies architectural thinking to domains beyond. OMA has forever changed our understanding of the city and our evolving relationship with art, shopping, sustainability and other typically twenty-first-century preoccupations.

Publisher Rizzoli's coffee-table book "OMA NY: Search Term" presents works that build on OMA's philosophy. Featured projects in the architecture book include skyscrapers in New York and San Francisco, mixed-use projects in Tokyo and Fukuoka, and master plans for Facebook's Menlo Park campus. In addition, the book shows more intimate spaces such as the studio for famed Chinese artist Cai Guo-Qiang, permanent structures such as Milstein Hall at Cornell University, the new galleries of the Musee National des Beaux-Arts in Quebec, Coach's Japanese flagship and the New Museum's expansion in Manhattan. Supplemented by temporary interventions such as the Manus x Machina exhibition at the Met Costume Institute and the towering concrete columns of An Occupation of Loss.
