Architectural gaits: architecture as technologies and techniques

Publications: Contribution to conference › Paper › Research

Abstract

The attempt in this paper is to offer a suggestion for analytical practices that focus on the discursive manifold of 'strategies, manoeuvres, tactics and technologies' performed to produce, or obtain spaces and buildings with special or cultural relevant qualities. By acknowledging the discursive differences between practises, it becomes possible to ask questions like: in which ways do architects imagine, see and define distant objects that are meant to become buildings, and in which ways are the processes open for intervention? How do the building-to-become gets knowable, real?
