Writing pertains to architecture. Texts innovatively structure and articulate design experiments and built forms. Manifestos, analyses, blog entries, poems, project descriptions, comics, and utopian narratives are just a few examples of the myriad, expansive ways that architectural writing and publishing manifests in defining and developing architectural discourse. GAM.11 – "Archiscripts" opens up new perspectives on this expanding field and presents contributions that discuss the fundamental relationship between architecture and writing.
