    tellmewhy—The First 24 Months of a New York Design Company

    (2003)

    • Clare Jacobson,
    • Jan Wilker,
    • Hjalti Karlsson

    Princeton Architectural Press

    A book as iconoclastic as their designs, tellmewhy features plenty of stories of karlssonwilker's ordinary office live and its less-than-romantic tales about rooftop parties, battles with immigration, language obstacles, missed meetings, and money problems. Despite these stories—and because of others—karlssonwilker has produced an impressive body of work in their first two short years in business.
