Publisher's cover art
A journal published by Intellect since 2012 on the connection between human communication and ecological accountability in architectural design. It publishes original design exploration at different scales, drawing on architecture, environment, interaction, urbanism, performing arts and communication, with a critical view of the built environment. It uses double-blind peer review and accepts articles in English.
Design Ecologies foregrounds the inextricable connection between human communication and ecological accountability in architectural design. This burgeoning field has the potential to become a far-reaching discipline, bonding a community that crosses over into and out of architecture, environment, interaction, urbanism, and performing arts and communication. Through original design exploration ranging in scale, the double-blind peer-reviewed journal will proffer a critical vision towards the built environment, and promote ecological transitions within local and global contexts. It will challenge the everyday emerging practices of architectural design by offering a transdisciplinary framework for design production.
