Architecture's Kinships

Architecture shapes and embodies complex social and environmental articulations.

It is not the container and representation of pre-packaged relationships, but a medium for motley associations. In advancing this proposition, this book explores diverse alliances and permeations of knowledge across media, bringing together arguments and projects that result from multiple conversations and collaborations. It contains an invitation to work in critical, even if messy coalitions, with the hope of questioning exclusionary forms of affiliation and contributing to the imagining of alternative platforms of relationality through the exploration, discussion, activation, and transformation of the built environment.
