Summary:
This is a graphic novel about the contemporary architectural profession, in which it acts as the protagonist in the form of an imaginary city called ''Practiceopolis.'' The novel narrates quasi-realistic stories that exaggerate the architectural everyday and the tacit, in order to make them prominent and tangible. They depict and dramatise the value conflicts between the different cultures of practising architecture and between the architectural profession and other members of the building industry as political conflicts around the future of ''Practiceopolis.'' The book uses the metaphorical world of ''Practiceopolis'' to provoke big questions about everyday routines in the profession that practitioners may take for granted and to examine different ideologies at work among architects and other members of the construction industry. The novel ends in the tradition of dystopian worlds common in a certain strand of graphic novels.
