Synopsis "Architecture Against Architecture: A Manifesto"

What should architects do in the 21st century? A manifesto on what is possible in the age of climate change, AI, and inequality.

Architecture, as we know it, may be coming to an end, and architects only have themselves to blame. The profession is out of touch, refusing to acknowledge the changes in the conditions that they work, or to reflect on how they go about doing their job.

In Architecture Against Architecture, Reinier de Graaf sets out a 14-point manifesto of what needs to be done to revolutionize architecture for the 21st century. With wit and insight, De Graaf anatomises the future of the profession and calls for the end the era of the Staritect. How architects should unionise. Why there should be a mandatory retirement age of 67. That building should not be copyrighted. How to use AI in practice. At the same time, he looks at the economics and politics of design. He offers strategies of why we should stop building. That architects should design to adapt to climate change rather than to mitigate it. To reuse rather than demolish. And the vital question of whether an architect can refuse a project on moral grounds. This book will provoke and challenge readers. De Graaf wants to rebuild architecture from the ground up and make it relevant again.
