Description

Explore a new dimension of architectural theory with Drawing the Unbuildable: Seriality and Reproduction in Architecture. While architecture is often linked to the act of building, this Routledge research volume introduces the concept of the unbuildable. This category covers projects that are not merely unbuilt, but physically impossible to construct. Author Nerma Cridge examines how these projects function within architectural discourse. Instead of acting as an opponent to buildable structures, the unbuildable often works to complement them. By analyzing well-known examples, such as Tatlin's Tower from early Soviet architecture, the book demonstrates the practical relevance of these concepts to modern architectural thought. This book is an essential resource for students, academics, and professionals interested in the theoretical boundaries of design and the role of reproduction in the field. It provides a deep look at how ideas that cannot exist in physical form still shape the way we understand and practice architecture today.
