Inscriptions: Architecture Before Speech Features LAMAS in Critical Architecture Publication

LAMAS is included in Inscriptions: Architecture Before Speech, a 2022 publication that brings together a range of international projects and essays examining architecture through material, drawing, and pre-linguistic forms of expression. The book is published by Lars Müller Publishers and edited as a collection of critical reflections on how architecture communicates beyond text and discourse.

The publication gathers contributions that explore architecture as an “inscriptive” practice—where meaning is embedded in material processes, spatial construction, and representational systems rather than language alone. It positions drawing, notation, and construction as primary modes through which architectural ideas are formed and transmitted across design and making.

LAMAS is featured within this broader framework of contemporary architectural practice, contributing to a set of works that engage questions of representation, material logic, and the translation of design intent into built form.

Further details about the publication are available through Harvard University Press.
