The book consists, in equal parts, of a conversation between an architecture writer and a practicing architect, and a selection of the latter’s spontaneous drawings. The plain and simple design goes along with the informal, conversational mood. The text is set in Yoonseul Batang by Yoon Min Goo and Gongan by Kim Tae-hun: both are conceptually rigorous yet formally flexible typefaces, whose open and breathing characters work well with how the book tells the stories.
