Else Zine | Issue 01| Morphological reading of a typology

else No. 01: Morphological reading of a typology
Swap Office, Fall 2025
Else is a bilingual zine, and in its first issue, it probes the restless edges of architectural typologies. Where forms hesitate, new possibilities unfold—edges erode, accesses multiply, cores whisper reinvention. Through stark red-blue diagrams that evolve across pages, this visual essay traces morphology’s subtle insurgencies, inviting designers to rechart the unspoken rules of spatial enclosure. Crafted by Swap Office in Tehran, its Persian-English text bridges local and global, sparking curiosity without dictating answers. Launched digitally in Fall 2025, else No. 01 is a call to explore the uncharted folds of making, hosted at swapoffice.ir. All content is original, designed to provoke and inspire.
