List and Map Views
The list gives each project’s title, type, place and year, its status and the layers it foregrounds. The map shows where the projects are, as precisely as the sources allow, and its list of places is a text equivalent of the map. The same map, with all projects, is the Project Map.
Search and Filter
Search looks in titles, places, teams and summaries. Filters can be combined, and the address in the browser’s bar changes to match, so that a filtered view can be bookmarked or shared. Without JavaScript the full list and the map are shown.
Project Type
The editorial classification used across the Projects section: architectural design, urban design, heritage and landscape, research and documentation, teaching and studio, and comparative and experimental. A project may belong to more than one type.
Geographic Location
Projects are located by country, and on the map by place. A place is given only as precisely as its sources allow: a site, a neighbourhood, a city or, where the sources name only a district, an approximate marker. Where sources disagree about a location, as for the Al-Cazaba, both candidates are shown.
Contextual Layers
The ten marks beside each project show which layers it foregrounds, either as reported in its sources or as an editorial reading where they are silent. Each project page says which.
Project Status
Completed projects are built or otherwise realised work, documented after completion; ongoing work is research or teaching still in progress; conceptual proposals are unbuilt theses, studio projects and competition entries. Statuses are distinguished by shape as well as by name.
