In a world dominated by social media and instant access to information and images, so much of what we consume is either forgotten or not fully appreciated. Art, film, music and architecture is transmitted so fast that often times it’s gone before we can even digest it. Clog Books aims to slow things down. They take topics of artistic interest and craft beautifully in depth studies on the topic, all in a surprisingly small package. Architecture is the common denominator so expect to find books on a wide range of subjects from Rem Koolhaus, to Brutalism to Prisons and even Sci Fi. I just finished Brutalism and it was excellent. From in depth looks at particular structures to cultural references and even some guest articles it was a perfect study on the subject.
Clog is committed to putting things down on paper, away from distractions of the screen. This obviously isn’t a groundbreaking new idea, but in today’s mostly digital landscape, it’s very refreshing. I can’t wait to dive deep into other topics.
