Summary:

/people is a collaborative inquiry into the role of shared authorship, spatial agency, and performative action in contemporary design and education. Framed by the work of the Interprofessional Studio at the Architectural Association, the book brings together voices from architecture, performance, politics, and pedagogy to explore how methodologies rooted in practice, collectivity, and situated knowledge can shape new modes of creative engagement. From protest and public encounter to speculative design and choreographed process, the book documents and reflects on experimental approaches developed within an evolving studio culture. These are not models, but working tools: invitations to act, think, and build with others. /people contributes to a wider conversation on interprofessionalism, responsibility, and the creative disciplines as active forces for transformation: proposing ways to imagine, rehearse, and realise more inclusive futures. - https://www.interprofessionals.net/ (viewed 10/28/2025)
