RIYA PATEL is curator of London’s Aram Gallery, an
independent venue dedicated to new and experimental
design. Since earning her master’s degree in architecture
and beginning her journalism career at the Architects’
Journal and The Architectural Review, she has been an
editor at Frame, as well as a senior editor at Icon, for
which she now serves as a contributing editor. Patel
writes for publications such as Disegno, Wallpaper* and
The Independent. On page 152, she reviews the evolving
role of the shelf.

Based in Los Angeles and New York City, photographer
MOLLY CRANNA prefers shooting portraits, fashions
and still lifes, with an emphasis on interesting faces and
interesting things. She uses colour to solve problems and
finds visual catharsis in straight lines and unexpected
moments. Her client list includes Puma, Target, Wired,
Paper magazine and Playboy. Cranna’s portraits of the
architects behind Johnson Favaro are on page 142.

As an editor and author specializing in 20th-century
architecture and design, JOHN JERVIS has filled the roles
of deputy editor at Icon magazine and managing editor at
ArtAsiaPacific. He has written for numerous publications
in the creative sector and edited catalogues for leading
institutions, including Tate and the National Gallery.
Nowadays, Jervis can be found procrastinating in London,
weighed down by an unfinished manuscript on welfare-
state architecture. His piece about the restoration of
Le Corbusier’s Paris penthouse is on page 124.

The work of Finnish photographer TUOMAS UUSHEIMO
captures the unspoken stories of architecture, built
environments, interiors and objects. His images have been
featured in international publications such as The New
York Times, Monocle and Architectural Digest. He teaches
architectural photography at the Lahti Institute of Design
and Fine Arts in Helsinki and at KS Koolitus in Tallinn.
For this issue, he photographed three buildings in
Helsinki: the Scandic Hotel (see p. 78), Oodi Central
Library (see p. 132) and the Amos Rex museum (see p. 172).
