In mathematical terms, the word asymptote is defined as a line that a given curve gets closer and closer to, but never touches, as it gets further from the origin towards infinity. In architectural terms, Asymptote is the Manhattan-based architectural design and research practice established by Lisa Anne Couture abd Hani Rashid in 1989.

Review:
'Flux is a glossy overview of built projects, competitions and temporary installations, interspersed with short but dense essays written by Rashid and Couture. Republished magazine interviews give quick insights into the thinking behind Asymptote's projects and working processes and add a human touch to the book ... ' (Blueprint) 'Compiled by the co-founders of New York multi-disciplinary architecture firm Asymptote, this comprehensive and accessible book documents their diverse and interesting projects.' (Creative Review)
