A persistent narrative portrays the ocean as an uninhabited space. However, centuries of commercial trade and an expanding network of infrastructures above and below the water's surface have long challenged this view, prompting researchers to conceptualize the sea as an urbanized environment. While the sea is a global arena where architecture, ecology, infrastructure, and politics intersect, its spatial dynamics remain largely uncharted.
- Explores the untold history of architecture's relationship with the seaOffering a fresh perspective on offshore modernismUnderstanding land urbanization from the ocean's point of view
