This book collects the work of the MIAS studio over twenty years. Their projects cannot be explained only as finished works, but need an understanding of the design process: everything that happens before the cranes arrive.

Based on four concepts, MIAS Universe explains the conceptual and constructive evolution of the studio’s most emblematic projects through drawings, collages, engravings, sketches and models. Oneiric Spaces, Assemblage, Archive and Finishing are the concepts that articulate the work of MIAS and its trajectory since its foundation in 2000.

With Contributions of Peter Cook, Archigram Founder; Bob Sheil, Bartlett Director; and Josep Mi�s, MIAS founder & director.

“As a kid who wanted to be an architect you could either make clay shapes, drag pieces of driftwood into vague boxes – or put together Meccano cages. I followed the last option and surely so did Josep Mi�s”
