paradise backyard, daniele mainetti

archive-based printed project
for exhibition 01, 2025

Created by architect Daniele Mainetti, Paradise Backyard is a 60-copy zine produced for Exhibition 01, drawing from 44 rare architecture and interior books from his private collection.

Placed within the exhibition’s book section, the zine introduced another tempo: archival, domestic, architectural. Interiors, books, fragments, and printed images opened a parallel reading of the exhibition.

Rather than acting as a supplement, Paradise Backyard extended the project through the circulation of references, images, and private material histories.
