<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The AA Book 2021 celebrates the depth of research and plurality of practice pursued at the Architectural Association (AA) during the 2020-21 academic year. </b><br>The publication features hundreds of projects by students from every unit and program within the school, which together document the AA as an environment where architecture is investigated as a form of knowledge that aims to address the most urgent questions we face in contemporary society.<br><p>The work featured within this book is the outcome of circumstances that have challenged the entire school community over the past year; to rethink how designers approach the environment, to reinvent practice so that we can address societal inequality and to reconsider how our space can foster a sense of care. Collectively, these reimagined buildings, reconceptualized cities and regenerated landscapes seek to establish a future that is more sustainable, equitable and democratic.<br></p>Complementing these projects are a series of thoughts and provocations that reveal the AA's commitment to remaining nimble and at the forefront of architectural culture and learning, both today and tomorrow. <br>
