Architectural education today is stretched between institutional inertia, market orientation, and planetary polycrisis. Contemporary urgencies – climate, nature, inequality, food systems– are typically treated superficially, when they demand a reordering of the terms of pedagogy itself. Pedagogies for an Anti-Disciplinary Design Education assembles methods from 15 contributors – across 12 universities in 10 countries – who are attempting to encompass the trans-scalar conflicts that design must take responsibility for.
Why anti-disciplinarity? Architecture is undoubtedly permissive in its range of interests and roles. Still, in design schools today, even subjects that share teaching spaces – architecture, urbanism, landscape, preservation, (nature) conservation, interior design, industrial design, etc. – are structurally prevented from interacting. And architecture education is so demanding and so market-oriented that engaging disciplines beyond design schools – geography, sociology, history, politics, theory – is even harder.
This book argues that a radical rethink is needed. An anti-disciplinary approach can engage the entangled supply chains, energy regimes, debt structures, border policies, histories of dispossession, and more-than-human ecologies in which design operates. Another design education is not only imaginable but already emerging in the experiments documented here, and it can be pursued without denying the constraints within which most of us work.
Mitesh Dixit is an architect, geographer, and founder of DOMAIN Office. His work connects architectural practice with critical research, focusing on territorial changes, extractive industries, and the geopolitics of the built environment. He teaches at several universities in the US, the UK, and Europe, and publishes on architecture, geopolitics, and extractive landscapes, integrating design with critical cartographical analysis. Fedah Taqi is a junior designer at BIG in New York. Her prior work as a Project Designer at DOMAIN Office included projects in the United States, teaching in Serbia and Austria, and curatorial research in Italy; her recent work studied socio-spatial conditions along MENA borders. James Westcott is an editor and writer. He taught a studio on material reuse with Rotor at the Architectural Association in London and continues to teach a seminar on (nature) conservation. He is currently editing Rem Koolhaas’s upcoming autobiography (2026) and edited Ad Hoc Baroque (2023), Back to the Office (2022), Countryside (2020), Elements of Architecture (2018), and Project Japan (2011). He is the author of When Marina Abramović Dies (2010).
