520 _a"The Architecture of Full-Scale Mock-Ups looks at the theory and contemporary practice of creating full-scale architectural mock-ups. This book serves as an introduction to the various forms of full-scale mock-ups which occur today.

Instead of the presentation drawings and final building photos, the documentation of case studies relies on process photos, interviews and moments of tension in the execution of each building. With never before published content, case studies include buildings from all over the world, including The Quincho tia Coral and Teleton Building, The Copper House II, The Pérez Art Museum Miami, The Cité de l'Océan et du Surf Museum, and more.
