Dearq Journal: Call for Papers / Between the Ephemeral and the Enduring

Architectural production is inherently linked to time, whether through the intent to endure or through a planned duration. However, the permanence of buildings is limited: elements wear out, are repaired, and are transformed, while users change their activities, integrate unexpected uses, and adapt spaces to their evolving needs. Similarly, projects with a set duration can extend their utility, travel to new spaces with updated programs, and generate new transactions. Even more paradigmatically, projects and construction are often carried out according to the rhythms of the community rather than a fixed schedule.
