musée imaginaire 3

The newest updated collection of architectural images in a handy pocket-size format


A musée imaginaire is a collection of favorite images, first proposed by Andre Malraux in 1947. This is a pocket-sized version of architectural photos drawing upon content from two earlier versions published by Second Guess Press, and including new material. The observant reader will discover images of the recently demolished wing of the White House in Washington DC, and blaze at the Wang Fuk Court apartment complex in Tai Po, Hong Kong which occurred in December 2025. The book contains images from antiquity, Art Deco, American roadside stands, theme parks, Brutalism and a range of high-rise structures. An indispensible addition to any design office library, as a student gift, or a general source for visual inspiration. Convenient size fits in any coat pocket, printed internationally on-demand to conserve valuable resources, offered at an attractive price.
