Queering Architecture

We are in a renaissance of queer methods, surveying mis/alignments between slippery queerness and orderly methods. From physical places to digital spaces, the contributors of this multivalent, delightfully unruly volume amplify the unique voices of architectural disciplines. * Amin Ghaziani, Professor of Sociology and Canada Research Chair in Urban Sexualities, University of British Columbia, Canada *
