Housing is more than a building or a program. If we imagine it as a field, it would encompass everything from individual housing units, through spaces where various individualities overlap and intersect, to small fragments of the city. On this field, forces of diverse origins and scales unfold: personal, cultural, and social aspirations and desires; political agendas; economic resources; and urban ideals.

“If collectivity is characterized by cohesion, the paramount question confronting design appears to lie in nurturing, amplifying, and multiplying the connections between individual realms and collective aspirations. In this edition of the journal, we showcase [...] projects that exemplify the myriad forms and elements that an emphasis on collectivity can assume within architecture.”
