This book presents the research of M Arch design studio DS25, where embodying alterity as part of design process is a way of taking account of architecture's potential subjects amidst constellations of otherness. The book reveals a research trajectory that starts with the premise that the body can be a generative agent for architecture. Body agents, as alter-ego narrators integrated into design projects, bring up new possibilities for design methodology and architecture's capacities. The chapters move through diverse approaches incorporating sci-fi, experimental drawing, performance, and storytelling, from considering architecture that addresses cyborgs to non-human actants existing in hybrid and multifaceted ecologies. This story is told through writings by studio tutors, featured student projects, expert essays from studio contributors, and visual vignettes incorporating a multiplicity of voices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alessandro Ayuso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0995589372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780995589377\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Westminster, Department of Arch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.77d","brand":"Alessandro Ayuso","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48114097553663,"sku":"9780995589377","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_17534703-92f9-4941-8453-a81500411545.jpg?v=1769619097","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/embodying-alterity-alessandro-ayuso-9780995589377","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
