This unusual book, published in connection with the exhibition in the Danish Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2025, explores the implications of a site-derived architectural practice and ethics. Featuring an extended, lyrical, and multifaceted dialogue between architect Søren Pihlmann and poet Adam Dickinson, it presents unconventional modes of analysis. From microbes to concrete, from metaphors to steel, the book offers a new model of thinking and creating, by making matter what too often does not matter.
