Who are architecture's subjects? This book presents the research of M Arch design studio DS25, where embodying alterity as part of design process is a way of taking account of architecture's potential subjects amidst constellations of otherness. The book reveals a research trajectory that starts with the premise that the body can be a generative agent for architecture. Body agents, as alter-ego narrators integrated into design projects, bring up new possibilities for design methodology and architecture's capacities. The chapters move through diverse approaches incorporating sci-fi, experimental drawing, performance, and storytelling, from considering architecture that addresses cyborgs to non-human actants existing in hybrid and multifaceted ecologies. This story is told through writings by studio tutors, featured student projects, expert essays from studio contributors, and visual vignettes incorporating a multiplicity of voices.
