‘joyspace’ book Adam Rolston

Publisher : Pacific

“I am that thing that doesn’t fit,” appears early on in Joyspace, architect Adam Rolston’s vibrant, sharp manifesto on the practice to which he has dedicated his life. Chronicling nearly four decades of a singular creative vision, within which a brief history of modern architecture unfurls and is then critiqued, Joyspace presents the reader with new definitions of art and value within the built environment. An act of personal and intellectual self-definition - that includes references as diverse as 'ACT UP', Filippo Tommaso Marinetti’s futurist manifesto, and Rutger Hauer’s chilling 'Tears in the rain' monologue from Blade Runner - Rolston’s Joyspace is a transformative force capable of shaping a new, interconnected global aesthetic that resists the boundaries of conventional design, where nothing fits and everybody belongs.

The Pacific Design Series explores design as an act of problem solving and alternative thinking. With contributions from some of today’s most visionary thinkers in the mediums of art, architecture, photography and creative writing, the series positions design as a gesture of hope - a belief that if we can imagine another way forward, then we can create a better way forward.
