The books Cartha – On Relations in Architecture, Asymmetric Labors and Flat Out, respectively represented by Cartha Magazine, Georg Rafailidis and Penelope Dean, will be presented followed by an informal discussion moderated by Luís Santiago Baptista, trying to find common perspectives and concerns.
