Stories that resists, ethics that persist: A. J. Lode Janssens’ living experiment in 1970s suburban Belgium

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In 1973, Belgian architect A. J. Lode Janssens embarked on a ten-year-long countercultural living experiment together with his young family in the outskirts of Brussels. A fascinating adventure began, taking the remarkable shape of a series of bedroom capsules on stilts, akin to moon-landers, connected through an overarching transparent dome. Very little has been published about the work until, in 2022, an exhibition and catalogue publication were dedicated to the project. Confronted with a project whose maker has shunned publicity for decades, I will take this paper’s own history as an opportunity to reflect on the ethical dilemmas that occur when studying architectural projects from the recent past that seem to resist publicity through scholarship. I will discuss Janssens’ living experiment as a fascinating countercultural effort and seemingly paradoxical attempt to make an anti-architectural position in and through architecture, and contextualise the project within the wider context of Belgian architecture in the 1970s and 80s.

The poetics of practice-based research writing
- 2006

In: Journal of Architecture. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1360-2365 .- 1466-4410. ; 11:3, s. 283-301

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Practice-based research invites us to re-examine the relationship between our scholarly arguments and the modes of expression we adopt to communicate them. A choice of genre implies a commitment to the conventions of a particular discourse, its metaphors, analogies and rhetorical strategies. If different genres express (and, arguably, create) different views, what do 'hybrid' forms of writing-writing of uncertain or shifting provenance, such as the prose poem, the poet's critical essay, or the philosophical dialogue-express? What are the consequences of choosing a given mode of expression in research writing? What epistemic assumptions and implications does it carry? What is the relationship between 'critical' and 'creative' writing in practice-based research? This essay investigates how literary and philosophical genres of inquiry may be applied to research writing. Considering Richard Buchanan's concept of design argument in relation to the practice-based doctorate, this paper argues that the 'hybrid' text is concerned less with resolving problems on the basis of a theory, than with setting the terms by which the problem can be addressed through calculated performances and gestures. Hybrid literary genres, incorporating strategies from creative and critical practices, can thus help us frame the practice-based investigation, refine its methods, and give voice(s) to its research results, thereby equipping designers as well as researchers with important conceptual and representational tools.

Interobjectivity in architectural research and theory : towards a meta-theory of materiality and the effects of architecture and everyday life
- 2014
-
In: Journal of Architecture. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1360-2365 .- 1466-4410. ; 19:1, s. 64-80
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The aim of this article is to introduce a meta-theoretical discussion in architectural research about materiality and its effect on everyday life and use. Taking a relational perspective, I distinguish between three different perspectives on materialities as described in theories in recent decades. From these perspectives I develop three possible conceptualisations of interobjectivity. The first perspective sees interobjectivity as collaboratively constructed ‘cross-road effects’. The second perspective sees interobjectivity as the process of stitching together material heterogeneities. The third perspective sees interobjectivity as the radiance of a persistent identity through different contexts. These three perspectives each contribute to the ways architectural objects and spaces interact and produce effects. These effects are often discussed within separate paradigms. Putting them together as different modalisations of interobjectivity enables a much richer empirical analysis, where the notion of ‘material effects’ can be differentiated and compared.
