Produktbeschreibung

At the core of this publication is a longing for narration and imagination, and by the same token the wish for liberation from the "terror of understanding" within architecture. The obsession with explicability and the quest for meaning follows an increasingly one-dimensional functionalization of the interpretation of architecture. This book opposes this lure of reality. Eutopia’s creatures are travellers, hybrids in time. Without a destination and without a recognizable purpose. It remains uncertain whether they generate space, whether they are objects, living beings, machines, animals or animate architecture. They live invisibly among us, and there are only few who have had the good fortune to recognize them. This little book recounts these sightings and the strange experiences that these people have made. Eutopia is not an alternative to reality, it is no refuge from the now or from the conscious self. It is an outing or a door. One door before perhaps ten thousand more doors that shall follow it.
