Issue 32 of MAS Context, guest edited by Design With Company, focused on the topic of Character
Welcome to the Character issue. In this issue we explore the opportunities of conjuring fictional characters as a device to demonstrate how a building is experienced, what makes a building have or become a character, and why architects formulate their own persona as a quasi-fictional character. Join us as we consider architecture in literary terms in order to reimagine how buildings can communicate with audiences through form, expression, structure, type, decoration, experience, narrative, and metaphor.
This issue is dedicated to the memory of architect, author, and educator Stanley Tigerman (1930-2019).
