»Dimensions. Journal of Architectural Knowledge« is an academic journal in, on, and from the discipline of architecture, addressing the creation, constitution, and transmission of architectural knowledge. It explores methods genuine to the discipline and architectural modes of interdisciplinary methodological adaptions. Processes, procedures, and results of knowledge creation and practice are esteemed coequally, with particular attention to the architectural design and epistemologies of aesthetic practice and research.
Issue no.7 explores architecture’s inherent potential for spatial, social and political intervention. The contributors analyze architectural projects – built, unbuilt or never intended to be built – with programmatic claims. They reflect on practices and designs that, by virtue of their spatial articulation or specific architectural methods, unfold a less obvious, hidden or even subcutaneous potential for intervention.
