To mark their 30th anniversary, in 2014, the Rockwell Group published a book What If…? The Architecture and Design of David Rockwell. The books show the designer’s interest in material and sensory experiences by using unusual silkscreen. The voices are highlighted by the use of different typefaces, bringing personal perspectives and behind the scenes details of life.

At the moment, one of their most anticipating architecture pieces is a $60 million concert hall, The Anthem, for the famous promoter Seth Hurwitz. The room’s features are a movable stage, angled balconies and an outside terrace with striking waterfront vista. The Anthem will have room to accommodate arena-size productions and balconies that are wedged to the stage so it can offer better views.
