In the depths of a shadowy corner, a spider weaves its intricate web, while wasps diligently construct their nest beneath a roof. The built environment, a realm once solely inhabited by humans, has now welcomed a diverse array of nonhuman inhabitants. However, our choices regarding which animals we welcome and which we exclude are remarkably selective. This captivating book delves into the realm of diverse animals, offering fresh perspectives on architecture and the realm of the more-than-human. By closely examining the ways in which animals create spaces for themselves, Paul Dobraszczyk poses thought-provoking questions about the potential requirements for designing with animals and fostering greater awareness of the other lifeforms that already utilize our structures. Animal Architecture serves as a provocatively introspective exploration of building in a world where humans and other animals are already intertwined, whether we acknowledge this connection or not.
