As RECORD enters its 133rd year of publication, in a media landscape vastly changed even in just the last decade, and I take on the role of editor in chief, the opportunities to present and discuss architecture are boundless. With RECORD’s expanding platforms, we aim to be a vital resource for everyone in the profession, from leaders to those new to it.

For students of architecture, there are no limits to what you can design. Studio is an opportunity to stretch your imagination as far as it can go, where the suspension of disbelief allows us to imagine how both the discipline and the profession may go beyond their conventional limits. More often than not, projects are imagined from scratch, the site a blank canvas upon which to build whatever novel form you desire.
