Research and publishing in architecture transform ideas into culture, uncertainties into fields of experimentation, the observable into the thinkable and the invisible into a reality. New Moon is an editorial project that aims to open up collective conversations. It engages in technical, theoretical and academic explorations that promote a research-practice approach and critical thinking. It was founded in 2023 by Barrault Pressacco.

Team : Helena Andersson (SWE), Jacopo Anzolin (IT), Sandra Arnaudo (FR), Sarah Bastide-Carrière (FR), Rémi Désir (FR), Bérengère Fornalczyk (FR), Pia Lepetit (FR), Heather Moss (CA), Guillaume Prevost-Bouré (FR), Tadeusz Pruszkowski (FR).
