Architecture In Development is a non-commercial, collaborative knowledge platform that welcomes everybody to share information about architecture related to its tradition, culture and innovation. By providing various tools for research and communication, the goal is to enable worldwide users to contribute new ways of thinking and acting in architecture practice and sustainable development.

Call for authors:::3 ways to participate:::

We call for architects, writers, photographers, urban planners, anthropologists, sociologists, engineers, committed professionals, passionate amateurs and free thinkers (...just to name a few) to co-create content for our website.

1. Contribute contextual stories to our project database and our interactive map.

To get started, you can browse the projects on our interactive map and find out if you have information, expertise or images about a particular project. If there's one project that you're particularly interested (or for example, have done researches about it), you are very welcome to 'become the main author' of this project!

2. Add project stories to our project database and our interactive map.
You can also suggest relevant built projects to our interactive map. These are not necessarily projects designed/ built by you; these can be projects that you have knowledge about. For example, you can share your research, your photos or your knowledge on vernacular architecture.

3. Contribute articles to our homepage.
You can contribute articles that stimulate new thoughts or discussions on the current architecture practice and sustainable development.

Co-create Architecture In Development!
Think about writing a short story about the history, the climate and the society related to a building that YOU are familiar with. Think about a knowledge platform where the images and information are collaboratively developed by YOU...We look forward to co-creating Architecture In Development together with YOU!
