Queering Architecture explores what it means to queer architecture, challenging the methods and methodologies of architectural discourse and subverting disciplinary power structures. Architecture as a discipline, a profession and an applied practice, is always subordinate to its own conceptual framework of orderliness. How, then, can we look at queering architectural discourse when the very term queer celebrated for its elusive, slippery nature resists and attacks such order? The essays in this book explore this paradox from a diverse range of perspectives from the questions of mapping queer theory in architecture; to the issues of queer architectural archives, or lack thereof; to the non-Western linguistic challenges to the very term queer alongside decolonial approaches to architecture via indigeneity and landscape. Queering Architecture not only provides a bold challenge to the normative methods employed in architectural discourse but addresses the paradoxical nature of establishing queer methodologies in itself. Offering guerrilla tactics and interventions for the discipline alongside a developing theoretical framework, it is essential reading for architects, designers, queer and LGBTQ+ theorists alike.

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 *
