Architecture’s Affective Imaginaries
This article considers affect in historical and contemporary architectural practice. This takes shape through a consideration of a 2012–2015 historic preservation project involving one of the famed rock-hewn churches in Lalibela, Ethiopia, which sits in a complex of churches designated a world heritage site by UNESCO in 1978. Using theory, interviews, and speculative and projective diffractive drawings, we suggest how envisaging the affective unsettles “normal” architectural practice.
