For over twenty years, the architecture \ncollective raumlaborberlin has been searching for new spaces of \nencounter and for ways of achieving cooperative urban development. \nTogether with experts from various disciplines, they experiment with new\n forms of urban practice, participation, and the joint production of \nspace. \u003cem\u003ePolylemma\u003c\/em\u003e explores the work of the collective from \ndiverse perspectives. Its nine members visit the sites of their work, \ncome together with long-standing colleagues and critics, dissect the \nmechanisms behind their actions, and reflect on the tools and methods of\n their research-based practice. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExamining numerous projects, they\n discuss strategies for learning together, experimental building, \nradical recycling, and cooperative urban development. The book is a call\n to action: space becomes an actor that fundamentally questions design \nitself and the role of architects.
