What is fictive architecture?
I know of three meanings of the term 'fictive architecture'. The first is invented architecture described in a novel. The second is speculative or imaginary architecture on paper or in cyberspace. The third use is the one which interests me: it is architecture which is built and exists, and which embodies fictional ideas. To understand this, think of the difference between a novel and non-fiction book. In a novel, there is no bound to the imaginative leaps that can occur, whereas within a non-fiction book meticulous care must be taken to adhere to the facts and present them elegantly. Most architecture is like the latter, fictive architecture as I am proposing is like the former. Please visit my blog www.architecturalfictionassociation.wordpress.com where I give examples.
