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?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eQueering Architecture \u003c\/i\u003enot 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57400756175230,"sku":"NW9781350267084","price":28.72,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781350267084.jpg?v=1778609317","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/queering-architecture","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
