Books orient, intrigue, provoke and direct the reader while
editing, interpreting, encapsulating, constructing and revealing
architectural representation. Binding Space: The Book as Spatial
Practice explores the role of the book form within the realm of
architectural representation. It proposes the book itself as
another three-dimensional, complementary architectural
representation with a generational and propositional role within
the design process. Artists' books in particular - that is, a book
made as an original work of art, with an artist, designer or
architect as author - have certain qualities and characteristics,
quite different from the conventional presentation and
documentation of architecture. Paginal sequentiality, the structure
and objecthood of the book, and the act of reading create
possibilities for the book as a site for architectural imagining
and discourse. In this way, the form of the book affects how the
architectural work is conceived, constructed and read. In five main
sections, Binding Space examines the relationships between the
drawing, the building and the book. It proposes thinking through
the book as a form of spatial practice, one in which the book is
cast as object, outcome, process and tool. Through the book, we
read spatial practice anew.
