Project is a forum for critical thought in architecture. It is rigorous, yet accessible–a printed journal that resists the indiscriminate flood of information found in architectural blogs and other contemporary media. It presents new work, theory, and criticism in a concise, affordable format. Through writing, conversation, drawing, and image, Project investigates the potential of architecture today.
Project has no themes but those of architecture and the city. Diverse contributors explore the possibilities of architectural form and representation, and the ways in which they can both define the city, and imagine alternatives to it. In so doing, the journal asks contributors to move beyond vague contemporary subjects such as sustainability, urbanism, and technology. Project investigates what architecture itself is capable of.
Project argues that architecture can only confront the conditions of the present with a view towards both the past and the future. It therefore situates contemporary work within a discipline of architecture, while acknowledging that this discipline is continually transformed–a transformation in which Project aspires to participate.
Project is a journal for architecture.
