Displayed Spaces. New Means of Architecture (Re)Presentation through Exhibitions

Displayed Spaces explores the exhibition as a central medium in the production and communication of architecture.

In a time when architecture increasingly unfolds through images, models, and spatial installations, questions of display, mediation, and curatorial practice become critical to architectural discourse. This publication brings together theoretical essays, case studies, and visual analyses that examine the evolving modes of architectural (re)presentation in the context of exhibitions.

Through a range of international examples—from institutional architecture biennials to experimental curatorial formats—the book shows how exhibitions today not only speak about architecture but also think architecturally. Models, diagrams, digital renderings, and immersive spatial arrangements create new ways of experiencing and interpreting built form. In the process, the roles of architects, curators, and designers are being redefined.

Displayed Spaces positions itself as a critical reader on the culture of exhibiting architecture in the 21st century—at the intersection of space, representation, and theory. It invites readers to consider the exhibition not merely as a mode of presentation, but as an autonomous method of architectural thinking.
