A massive visual resource, with over 750 colour illustrations that show each design in context and detail, with colour coding to define each area of product. The overall design, with the strong use of ruled lines and simple typography, was employed to evoke the feel of a children's school book.

XS Extreme and XS Green
are part of the most successful design series published in recent years, with sales of the XS range exceeding 150,000 copies worldwide.
XS Extreme considers buildings at the edge of possibility.
Sited in remote locations,
built to withstand wild climatic conditions, or conceptually daring or provocative, all the structures are original, innovative and instructive.
XS Green is a celebration of idiosyncratic small buildings, and asks what we mean by building ‘green’ and how doing so enriches the world around us.
