Exemplo Books is a Lisbon-based publisher 
founded by architects Roberto Soares (ZA) 
and Diogo da Graça (PT). 
We aim to foster a dynamic relationship 
between artists, editors, and researchers by 
publishing books that explore the critical 
intersection of art, architecture, and thought. 
Our works encourage authors to engage with 
their references and the broader cultural 
landscape, promoting dialogue across 
disciplines and offering new perspectives on
contemporary issues.
