EAHN Building Word Image Group: Actors at the Margins

Online Seminar Series, October – December 2021

A series of dialogues, initiated by the EAHN Group Building Word Image, shedding light on groups or individuals acting at and from the margins of the realm of architecture.

Through these seminars, through multivocal and collaborative writing, through provocations and questions, we want to stimulate debates on architectural production and reception from the margins, from disegno to Ikea, from grassroots movements to developers, through women writers, scientists and architects, across soil, craft, and photography
