While most studies on the history of architectural theory have been
concerned with what has been said and written, this book is
concerned with how architecture theory has been created and
transmitted. Architecture Thinking across Boundaries looks at
architectural theory through the lens of intellectual history.
Eleven original essays explore a variety of themes and contexts,
each examining how architectural knowledge has been transferred
across social, spatial and disciplinary boundaries - whether
through the international circulation of ideas, transdisciplinary
exchanges, or transfers from design practice to theory and back
again. Dissecting the frictions, transformations and resistances
that mark these journeys, the essays in this book reflect upon the
myriad routes that architectural knowledge has taken while
developing into architectural theory. They critically enquire the
interstices – geographical, temporal and epistemological – that
lie beyond fixed narratives. They show how unstable, vital and
eminently mobile the processes of thinking about architecture have
been.
