'Territories' is the third in a series of publications that purposefully reframe what a practice monograph might be. While architecture publishing often treats its subject as self-contained hermetic objects, this publication series challenges this professional convention. 'Territories' repositions architecture as a relational discipline, reversing the logic of building as architecture’s endpoint. Buildings are, rather, the after-effect of relations. And while physical or spatialrelations are long-established constituent ingredients of architecture, Territories adds cultural, political, economic and social relations to this architectural repertoire. Seen through this lens, the architect’s scope and agency expands to a network of complex real-world relations, in which designing buildings is only one territory of action.
