One of Sweden’s most renowned contemporary architects, Johan Celsing has created a diverse body of work, from housing to public institutions, including museums, libraries, and churches. All of Celsing’s work is united by an intense and realistic engagement with the craft of building.

Johan Celsing: Buildings, Texts is the first book to date to comprehensively collect Celsing’s designs. It features both built and unrealized projects through working drawings and sketches, watercolors, models, and new photographs by London-based photographer Ioana Marinescu. In addition to some 660 illustrations, the Celsing’s work is discussed in essays by architects, educators, and critics Claes Caldenby and Wilfried Wang. A selection of Celsing’s own writings rounds out this beautiful monograph.
