Inhabiting Displacement: Architecture and Authorship - Hardcover

by Shahd Seethaler-Wari (Author), Somayeh Chitchian (Author), Maja Momic (Author)

This anthology aims to destabilize the limits of the discipline of architecture by focusing on the core concepts of inhabitation and displacement. This, by extension, centralizes the figure of the inhabitant and interrogates the limits of conventional architectural thinking.

The editors shed light on the topic of displacement from interdisciplinary and international perspectives. By rendering visible the practices of living and spatial appropriation, this volume also encourages critical engagement with questions of architectural production and authorship.
