Description

Explore the realities of modern design through Practiceopolis: Stories from the Architectural Profession. Published by Routledge, this graphic novel uses an imaginary city to represent the contemporary architectural profession. By treating the profession itself as the protagonist, the book offers a unique perspective on the daily life of architects. Through quasi-realistic stories, the narrative exaggerates everyday architectural experiences to make tacit professional elements tangible. The book depicts the value conflicts that arise between different architectural cultures. It also examines the tensions between the profession and other members of the building industry, framing these challenges as political struggles for the future of Practiceopolis. This work provides a visual and narrative way to understand the complex dynamics within the building sector.
