Beautifully designed by Lyanne Tonk this is a book on the city as we perceive it; a place to rethink and reimagine the existing built environment. UNMAKING departs from a local area in the city of Utrecht: Werkspoorkwartier, a former industrial zone. This part of town is the departure point for contributions by artists, biologists, architects, thinkers of all sorts. They delivered drawings, speculative scenarios, photos, memories, subjective atlases, essays and interviews. UNMAKING therewith reflects on the contemporary love story of humans with their cities.
