Synopsis

• Building Practice will engage students, academics, professionals, the broader design community, and the general public. The publication features interviews with 32 architecture and design professionals/firms sharing observations about the future of the professional practice of architecture and design in relation to the convergence of practical and theoretical forms of knowledge
• The range of contributing professionals reveals varied narratives and trajectories within architecture and design today, and explores the intersection of architecture with culture, social issues, and politics, uniquely positioning Building Practice to reach a wide and diverse audience
• Building Practice features interviews with architects, designers, educators, curators, fabricators, strategists, critics, and activists who are advancing speculative design through the culture and politics of building

Building Practice features interviews with architects, designers, educators, curators, fabricators, strategists, critics, and activists who are advancing speculative design through the culture and politics of building, capturing critical and formative moments associated with building a practice. Each interview reveals strategies for linking practical and theoretical forms of knowledge and evidences the active creation of unique approaches to contributing positively to both architectural culture and the built environment.

Collectively, an introduction, 12 short texts on topics that are pertinent to architecture today, and thirty-two interviews convey how architects claim conceptual territory regarding form, space, order, materiality, and aesthetics, and push for design to have meaning and value in relation to cultural, environmental, political, and social concerns. The individuals and practices profiled in this book collectively partition themselves from previous generations of experimentally motivated practices while individually exemplifying their own inimitable affinities, techniques, and sensibilities.

Building Practice shares the first acts of an emerging generation of practices and identifies the peripheral yet pivotal aspects of building a practice today.
