Welcome to Aggregate's website for the publication, workshopping and discussion of research in architectural history and theory.
We publish peer-reviewed work, gathered under the thematic umbrellas Matter, Discipline, Plots, and Systems. (You can read more about what we publish here.) We also post announcements about events and publications in our field by request.
We announce the publication of new work via our email list (sign up here) and on our Twitter feed. We invite proposals for projects that would benefit from collaborative editing and transparent peer review, and look forward to comments and questions.
Work in the PLOTS umbrella considers the relationships between architecture, economy, and territory. As instruments and products of capital, buildings and architectural practices have the capacity to reinforce, interrupt, and reconfigure economic systems. Through drawing, mapping, writing and other forms of analysis, PLOTS aims to develop new methods, theories and histories of this capacity. We collect and cultivate research at the intersections of capitalism studies, architectural studies and geography, seeking new openings in conversations about property, public and private space, subjectivity, debt, real estate, and political economy.
