Callouts in architecture establish a closer look towards a part of a project that requires more explanation and emphasized attention due to its complexity, uniqueness or typicality. They create a different, more detailed view of what has already been seen, expanding the reader&rsquo;s understanding of the project.</p> <p>Following that tradition, &ldquo;Callouts&rdquo; is a series of carefully selected complex, unique and banal projects, that have the potential to initiate a discussion, be didactic and affect their contemporary contextual mythology. Reviews for projects that do not satisfy these criteria can be found by typing &ldquo;architecture&rdquo; on your search bar. </p>
