Résumé:
Architects write a lot, especially now that conceptual aspects have become central in advanced reflections and narrative forms increasingly intersect the quest of design practices for an ultimate legitimation. In the growing mass of publications, these keywords turn the genre of annotated bibliography into a hypertextual device by highlighting recurrent issues and tracking synthetic paths of orientation among different critical positions, with particular attention to what happens in the neighbouring fields of the arts and sciences.

Résumé:
Speculative Everything offers a tour through an emerging cultural landscape of design ideas, ideals, and approaches. Dunne and Raby cite examples from their own design and teaching and from other projects from fine art, design, architecture, cinema, and photography.
