Residential architecture is in crisis. In the twenty-first century we face population growth, migration and displacement, shifting intergenerational consensus, changing concepts of domesticity, and the disintegration of traditional gender roles. The architecture of the spaces in which we dwell plays an essential role in the face of such challenges.
The Dream – Play – Challenge Project sets up a different form of creative exchange. It addresses how we could live in the future, extending the inclusive approaches of intersectional feminism to move beyond traditional academic discourse. This publication shows how forty international researchers came together to dream into future ways of residing, playfully co-creating more vibrant and just spaces of exchange.
