Queering Architecture explores what it means to 'queer' architecture, challenging the concepts and methods underpinning architectural discourse and subverting disciplinary power structures. Architecture - as a discipline, a profession and an applied practice - is always subordinate to its own conceptual framework of orderliness. How, then, can we look at queering architectural discourse when the very term 'queer', celebrated for its elusive nature, resists and attacks such order? The essays in this book explore this paradox from a diverse range of perspectives - from questioning how to map queer theory in architecture; to examining queer architectural archives, or the lack thereof; to non-Western linguistic challenges to the very term queer; and the queering of basic assumptions across the built environment disciplines. Queering Architecture not only provides a bold challenge to the normative methods employed in architectural discourse but also addresses how establishing 'queer' methodologies is a paradox in itself Offering guerrilla tactics and interventions for the discipline alongside a developing theoretical framework, it is essential reading for architects, designers, queer and LGBTQ+ theorists alike.
