»Dimensions. Journal of Architectural Knowledge« is an academic journal in, on and from the discipline of architecture, addressing the creation, constitution and transmission of architectural knowledge. It explores methods genuine to the discipline and architectural modes of interdisciplinary methodological adaptions. Processes, procedures and results of knowledge creation and practice are esteemed coequally, with particular attentiveness to the architectural design and epistemologies of aesthetic practice and research.
Issue 10/2025, edited by Lidia Gasperoni, Beata Hemer, Jennifer Raum, and Guro Sollid, seeks to foreground the multifarious, transformative, and productive zones of contact through which new forms of cohesion and understanding for more-than-human environments can arise. The issue features a multitude of encounters between practice and theory, as well as premises for engaging with contact zones within the fields of architecture and landscape architecture, raising questions and providing inspiration for spatial practitioners and educators who insist on a critical and open engagement with the urgent planetary conditions.
