AWARE: Reflections on the Agency of Architecture

by Olivia Toftum, Kristoffer Lindhardt Weiss

‘Aware’ examines the agency of architecture – its power to shape our emotions, interactions, and ultimately the planet. Beyond providing shelter, architecture influences how we feel, live, and connect. With the escalation of global environmental challenges, the role of architecture becomes vital in ensuring both human and planetary well-being. Today, architectural awareness and insightful responses are more critical than ever. The book is published in conjunction with an exhibition by 3XN GXN at the Danish Architecture Centre in Copenhagen and presents thoughts from diverse voices across disciplines on the emotional and transformative power of space.
