Description
Architecture and Collective Life by Penny R. Lewis, Lorens Holm, and Sandra Costa Santos explores the intricate connection between architecture and public life. This book examines how buildings and urban spaces reflect and shape our social relations, institutions, and political processes. Through an international range of contributors, the chapters delve into topics such as authority and planning, the welfare state, place and identity, and autonomy. The authors unpack concepts like community and collectivity, alongside themes of self-organisation and authorship. By examining urban and architectural practice in the context of historical, political, and social change, this book offers valuable insights for students, academics, and practicing architects alike. By shedding light on the complex relationships between architecture, public life, and society, Architecture and Collective Life provides a nuanced understanding of how our built environment influences and is influenced by our collective experiences.
