Presented by 192 Books, ARO Principals Stephen Cassell, Kim Yao, and Adam Yarinsky will be in conversation with Miko McGinty about Architecture. Research. Office. (DelMonico Books, 2024). When it was established, Architecture Research Office (ARO) represented a new breed of firm—one of the first to be defined by its purpose rather than by a last name or an eponymous acronym. Architecture. Research. Office. documents the firm’s ethos and culture that has quietly shifted the architectural field’s outlook. For the first time, this book meticulously compiles over 30 of ARO’s most significant projects, including the renewed Rothko Chapel and Campus, the boathouse in Brooklyn Bridge Park, and the world’s largest LGBTQ+ synagogue, Congregation Beit Simchat Torah.
