The experimental realism provides architects with a vital means to test ideas and the untried. By injecting the experimental with a new realism, however, speculative design has the potential to advance new inclusive, equitable and desirable futures. Showcasing cutting-edge insight, the book advocates for the inclusion of speculative spatial design in architectural development. It explores the real-word application of nearfuture fantastical storytelling and the power of imagination. Discover plural design reactions in response to real possible situations.
