It features essays by Mario Botta, Werner Oechslin, Simona De Giuli and an interview with the architect by Nicoletta Ossanna Cavadini. The book accompanies a touring exhibition of 12 projects by Michele Arnaboldi the first of which is staged by Accademia di architettura in Mendrisio, opening on 26 November 2009.
