Based on a multi-sited ethnography of the building project for Aviva Studios (formerly, Factory) in Manchester, U.K., a theatre/cultural space designed by the architectural firm OMA, it explores the challenges of sharing in the act of creation by following the everyday practices of designers. Beyond the world of the architects, this book foregrounds a variety of other practices and realities at stake in the building, and offers a rare account of a building project from the point of view of the broader design and project team. More than the making of a building, it argues that it is also an experiment with, and reshaping of, a common world, showing what design practices and building projects can teach us about sharing in acts of creation and knowing. This book will be of interest to researchers and students of architecture, design, urban studies, Actor-Network Theory and Science and Technology Studies. Brett Mommersteeg is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institut fuÌ⁸r EuropaÌ⁸ische Ethnologie at Humboldt-UniversitaÌ⁸t zu Berlin in Germany. He holds a PhD in Architecture from the University of Manchester and a MA in Theory and Criticism from the University of Western Ontario. Previously, he was a teaching fellow at the Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at the University of Edinburgh. His research draws on Actor-Network Theory and Science and Technology Studies with a focus on architecture, environmental issues, and sound studies. 001484357 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001484357 61020 $$aOffice for Metropolitan Architecture$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000111564846 001484357 61020 $$aAviva Studios. 001484357 650_0 $$aArchitecture$$xPhilosophy. 001484357 650_0 $$aActor-network theory. 001484357 650_6 $$aArchitecture$$xPhilosophie. 001484357 650_6 $$aThéorie de l'acteur-réseau. 001484357 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001484357 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMommersteeg, Brett.$$tVariations of a building.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2023$$z9789819968015$$w(OCoLC)1402256761 001484357 852__ $$bebk 001484357 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-99-6802-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001484357 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1484357$$pGLOBAL_SET 001484357 980__ $$aBIB 001484357 980__ $$aEBOOK 001484357 982__ $$aEbook 001484357 983__ $$aOnline 001484357 994__ $$a92$$bISE
