CHORA offers a space to meditate on the possibility of an architecture capable of respecting cultural differences and acknowledging the globalization of technological culture. Interdisciplinary by definition and reflecting various cultural concerns, its essays operate from within the discipline of architecture. Generated by personal questions of pressing concern for architecture and our culture, these radical explorations of form and content suggest alternatives for a more significant architectural practice. While the main philosophical framework for CHORA stems from phenomenology and hermeneutic ontology, the architectural pursuits in this collection can be placed in the broad context of European philosophy, which demands a fundamental redefinition of thought and action and a substantial rethinking of traditionally accepted values.
