UNION Magazine Issue 07 is an independently researched print journal that maps experimental, conceptual, and critical work across architecture, art, and design — treating spatial practice as a form of research rather than a finished product.
About This Book
UNION operates from a clear editorial position: ideas precede objects, and process is as legible as outcome. Each issue assembles a cross-section of architects, artists, and designers whose work resists easy categorisation, publishing across scale, typology, and medium to build a detailed record of contemporary interdisciplinary practice. Issue 07 brings together a particularly expansive range of contributors — from the material philosophy of Leonard Koren and the atmospheric architecture of Peter Zumthor, to artists and spatial practitioners working across performance, photography, and collaborative research. For practitioners and students who want critical context alongside visual documentation, UNION is one of the few independent architecture magazines that sustains genuine intellectual rigour.
