Honored to see Daniel Kaven’s Architecture of Normal featured in PRINT Magazine’s The Daily Heller, a design digest dubbed a “must-follow feed in the world of design” by Wired Magazine.
"Kaven has assembled an enticing visual narrative that includes extensive historical photography, architecture commentary, personal anecdote and original art.
