"We should, then, understand this 'indeterminacy' as a certain state of suspension of the precise meaning of the object, resulting from the re-questioning of the limits in which this is inscribed". The book proposes to investigate those episodes in which there exists a questioning of architectural limits, a questioning of the construction and meaning of the architectural object. This study does not set out to situate itself on an absolutely given terrain -- history, criticism and theory, professional praxis, pedagogy or even performance -- but attempts instead to develop a discourse which is informed by the diversity of these normally "restricted" positions. With essays by prominent architectural theorists, this book is a valuable addition to both the academic and professional architecture communities.
