Dimensions is the annual, student-produced journal of architecture at the University of Michigan. [Mark Stanley was on the design and editorial team for Dimensions 22.] It was designed over the course of an academic year by a group of six students. Students produce the entire journal, including: soliciting work, choosing contributors, organizing content, designing layouts, content editing, copy editing, and completing the proofing and printing process with the press. D22 was printed and bound in Michigan with a run of 1500 copies. The book is organized as a collection of common words and themes culled out of the writing from the various contributors using word counting software tools. The text is then 'strung through' the book as a single line (as well as a series of distinct essays attached to each project). This text appears on the cover as well and is printed with thermally-raised, transparent ink.
