Architecture shapes both human and more-than-human worlds. Historically, it has served (and still does) as an instrument of power, creating, restricting and distributing both control and access. Yet architecture also carries the potential for care and inclusivity, offering shelter and fostering belonging. Shifting the focus from the designers and creators of the built environment to its inhabitants, Building Diversity's second publication offers a critical lens to explore for whom cities, buildings, spaces and infrastructures are shaped for and with. The publication creates a space for diverse voices by bringing in different perspectives to highlight the complexities of the question but, who are we building for? These multifaceted contributions spark curiosity and offer ideas and thoughts for further conversations and reflections.
