This partnership started out with the academic journal Footprint and will now be accompanied with the Ecologies of Architecture Book Series. Footprint Footprint is an academic journal dedicated to publishing architecture and urban research. The journal promotes the creation and development - or revision - of conceptual frameworks and methods of inquiry. It is engaged in creating a body of critical and reflexive texts with a breadth and depth of thought which would enrich the architecture discipline and produce new knowledge, conceptual methodologies and original understandings. Ecologies of Architecture Ecologies of Architecture started in 2024. The Ecologies of Architecture Book Series promotes a transdisciplinary approach to architectural thinking and doing by extending its interest to topics that bring together the three ecological registers, namely the environment, the social and the individual. Such an approach accounts for what the built environment will come to be, and speculates about who will become alongside it. The series focuses not only on the why, what and how of architecture, but also on the who, who with and for whom.
