Editorial profile

AND – Architecture, Cities and Architects was founded in 2003 with the aim of fostering debate and enrichment on contemporary issues in the Italian and international architectural landscape. Each issue is structured around an “active” comparison between two major themes – whether projects, figures, or cultural trends – whose juxtaposition generates new ideas, interpretations, and directions for a broader debate. These topics are interconnected by a central core – AND – which functions as a conceptual hinge, providing insights for further investigation, interdisciplinary connections, and opportunities for discussion.
