What is the current existence of love in architecture and design, if not limited to notions of romance or beauty? Inflection Vol. 12 explores the theme of love, a concept that does not sit comfortably within mainstream architectural discourse, often considered too trivial or intangible for academic attention. Yet the contents of this issue propose that it is precisely in this intangibility that love reveals itself as a poetic act to guide design towards a more meaningful and sustainable way of being. Contributors consider the connection between love and the built environment, including questions such as: What is the current existence of love in architecture and design, if not limited to notions of romance or beauty? How can love act as a critical force in the creation of relationships between people and their environments? What does it mean to design with love? Acknowledging both the complexity and universality of love, Inflection Vol. 12 invites readers to reconsider the value of engaging with love in design.
