Scènes de Nuit - Night & Architecture

SCÈNES DE NUIT examines the role of night in the construction of contemporary cities and societies, questioning whether architectural theory and critique are still predominantly associated with sunlight and diurnal paradigms. The book, a catalog resulting from the eponymous exhibition held at f'ar Lausanne in 2019 under the curation of Javier F. Contreras and Youri Kravtchenko, reflects upon the spaces, activities, and media deployed in night culture, utilizing available photography, footage, records, and transcriptions as its primary editorial material.
