Autotelic Architect explores how movements towards more self-initiated projects, greater collaboration and design activism have changed how architects and designers are practicing, as well as the kinds of projects they are working on. Using new research and her own experiences, the author analyses the practical and professional implications of operating as a ‘non-conventional’, progressive, participatory design practice. Drawing on a range of global case studies of pioneering architects and designers in this field, she reflects upon current and future trends at local, national and international level, and additionally examines marketing and practical issues for architects. Illustrated with more than 30 black and white images, this is a fascinating read for any practicing architect.
