Borrowing from a range of theories on spacemaking and material religion, and with contributions from anthropologists working in the United Kingdom, Mali, Brazil, Spain, and Italy, this fascinating and comprehensive study develops an anthropological perspective on modern religious architecture including mosques, churches, and synagogues.

The Building as Screen: A History, Theory, and Practice of Massive Media describes, historicizes, theorizes, and creatively deploys massive media -- a set of techno-social assemblages and practices that include large outdoor projections, programmable architectural facades, and urban screens -- in order to better understand their critical and creative potential.

Deviant Space: Abjection, Failure, and Appropriation as Architectural Practice frames architecture as a fragile Symbolic construct, susceptible to appropriation, disruption, and reorientation by deviant bodies.

This groundbreaking study examines courtyard architecture across Paris, Florence, Siena, Granada, and Yazd to reveal how the deliberate creation of emptiness-the "e;bounded void"e;-functions as architecture's primary generative principle.

Institution Architecture: Building the Avant-Garde takes a terminological, sociological, and semiological approach that develops by tracing the 'avant-garde' in a century span of literatures for a textual analysis, unpacking the text, and in a process analysis, interpreting it.

The sheer computing power of modern information technology is changing the face of research not just in science, technology and mathematics, but in humanities and cultural studies too.
When we draw basic geometric forms - lines, circles, points - to describe the possible future shape of our buildings and our cities, do we consider what predetermined social interactions are embedded in those forms?
(Un)Common Precedents in Architectural Design calls for an attentive examination of the uncommon that inspires creativity, prompting a re-examination of both common and marginalised precedents.

This book explores how innovative shading design improves psychological comfort in synaptic spaces – those dynamic and transitional built environments where people connect, engage, and interact.
