{"product_id":"9781350267084","title":"Queering Architecture : Methods, Practices, Spaces, Pedagogies by Marko Jobst","description":"Queering Architecture explores what it means to \"queer\" architecture, challenging the methods and methodologies of architectural discourse and subverting disciplinary power structures.   Architecture as a discipline, a profession and an applied practice, is always subordinate to its own conceptual framework of orderliness. How, then, can we look at queering architectural discourse when the very term `queer' - celebrated for its elusive, slippery nature - resists and attacks such order?The essays in this book explore this paradox from a diverse range of perspectives - from the questions of mapping queer theory in architecture; to the issues of queer architectural archives, or lack thereof; to the non-Western linguistic challenges to the very term queer alongside decolonial approaches to architecture via indigeneity and landscape. Queering Architecture not only provides a bold challenge to the normative methods employed in architectural discourse but addresses the paradoxical nature of establishing `queer' methodologies in itself.  Offering guerrilla tactics and interventions for the discipline alongside a developing theoretical framework, it is essential reading for architects, designers, queer and LGBTQ+ theorists alike.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56297639051637,"sku":"9781350267084","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781350267084.jpg?v=1762781112","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781350267084","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
