Description
Domicide Architecture, War and the Destruction of Home in Syria by Ammar Azzouz explores the impact of war on cities and communities. Focusing on the concept of 'home', Azzouz examines how cities can be rebuilt without causing further damage to local communities. Drawing on interviews with built environment professionals and those who have become 'architects' as they rebuilt their homes, this book offers insights into the role of architects during times of war and explores how future reconstruction should mirror the needs and traditions of local communities. A valuable resource for researchers in architecture, urban planning, heritage studies and conflict studies, Domicile provides a fresh perspective on rebuilding cities in conflict zones. By shedding light on the experiences of those affected by war, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the complex relationships between architecture, community and conflict.
