Cosmoform investigates the links between the work of renowned Irish architect Liam McCormick and his Swiss contemporary Justus Dahinden using Glasnevin’s Met Éireann offices and Zurich’s Ferro-haus as key examples. Dublin’s Met Éireann office has historically been considered somewhat of an anomaly in McCormick’s architectural style; however, this essay by Cormac Murray demonstrates that it is part of a wider European tradition of progressive 20th century architectural design and critical theory explored by Dahinden and his contemporaries. This 8pp booklet folds out to an A2 size poster. Illustration by Julien Gobled.

The Forgotten Frontier is an architectural zine that critically examines the origins, construction and character of the Phibsboro Shopping Centre. This controversial building has divided opinion since its completion in 1969 and recent plans for its development have initiated similarly heated debate. This publication attempts to place the building in its proper historical context and examine its value, both to the people of Phibsboro and to the wider city. It contains an essay by writer Cormac Murray, a series of documentary photographs by Breffni Hall and an axonometric diagram of the structure by Robin Fuller.
