Routledge Architecture from Public to Commons - Theory Book

Architecture from Public to Commons by Routledge offers a necessary framework for rethinking how architecture functions within the politics of the commons. This book provides a collective reflection on how design and spatial practices can be recast through the lens of commoning. Readers will explore diverse perspectives, including the role of institutions and the challenges of architecture as a formal practice. The text moves through various global contexts, examining the design of objects with shared value in Chile and land protocols in New York that seek alternatives to profit-driven property models. By investigating the limits of language and fluid identities, this work invites a deep look at how we might revolt against current structures to build something different. This is a vital resource for students, academics, and professionals interested in the intersection of architecture, social politics, and shared resources.
