Speculative Coolness
Cantley’s work offers a unique and critical insight into the emergence of a liminal territory that exists between the real and the virtual, which mainstream architecture has yet to exploit. Speculative Coolness surveys and collects a highly experimental architecture/design praxis.
This book presents a selected body of his work, showcasing projects that seek to understand and explore the conditions, contexts, and media logics that govern this new territory. It speculates on the Architecture[s] which it might occupy, and which might occupy it.
Featuring both resolved projects and works that are under development, this anthology represents constructs that locate themselves somewhere between architecture and its documentative media. The projects are presented alongside a series of critical essays written by pre-eminent architectural practitioners and theorists. These essays explore the disciplinary, social, and cultural context of the work, underscoring the importance of these explorations to the expansion of disciplinary knowledge.
