Amancio Williams: AP205 is a richly researched architecture book exploring the work of Argentine modern architect Amancio Williams (1913–1989), a key figure in Latin American modern architecture. Best known for the iconic Casa sobre el Arroyo, also called Casa del Puente (Bridge House), Williams produced a wide body of visionary projects that extended far beyond his few built works.

Drawing from an extensive archive of drawings, photographs, models, and correspondence donated to the Canadian Centre for Architecture in 2020, this publication features new research by architectural historians and practitioners. Their essays offer fresh perspectives on Williams’ work, examining its social, material, and political dimensions and situating his practice within contemporary architectural discourse. Thoughtful, scholarly, and beautifully considered, Amancio Williams: AP205 is an essential volume for architects, designers, students, and collectors of modern architecture books.

After twenty years of creating luxury engraved and letterpress custom correspondence for clients around the world, Mr. Boddington established his first stationery boutique in Brooklyn in 2019. There you will find hand-illustrated greeting cards, stationery, pencils, Japanese pens and fancy paper goods with enduring appeal.

Whether you are writing to wish your sister better luck with her love life, or leaving a reminder to pick up coffee at the bodega, it is best jotted on paper.

MR. BODDINGTON WAS MY IMAGINARY FRIEND

About twenty years ago, Rebecca Ruebensaal found herself weeping in a bathroom stall at her dreaded corporate job. Desperate to make NYC rent, there was only one probable solution. She called upon her childhood imaginary friend, a globetrotting gentleman named Mr. Boddington, and started a small business devoted to paper. Her parents were dizzy with worry.

In its early years, Mr. Boddington created engraved and letterpress invitations for picky yet impeccable brides in Manhattan. Eventually the business evolved to offering hand-illustrated greeting cards, stationery, books and globally-sourced desk accessories, always with Mr. B's idiosyncratic perspective as the guiding muse.
