Synopsis "UNDERCOVER ARCHITECT. TOWNHOUSE DESIGN-BUILD IN HARLEM NY / CHRISTIAN VOLKMANN"

• A detailed account of one architect’s experience designing and building a small project in Harlem.
• Provides practical insight into urban architecture in a challenging environment.
• Covers essential behind-the-scenes aspects like financing and permitting.
• Offers valuable real-world lessons for aspiring architects.
• Also explores the broader role of architects and how they can make a meaningful impact on the built environment.

Every aspiring architect dreams of building a house from scratch and experiencing every phase up close, from the design to the
finished building. Sometimes this really happens: this book describes an architect’s real life experience, wearing multiple hats, of the
comprehensive process (planning, design, finance, permits, coordination, construction etc.) involved in the design and construction of
a small building in Harlem, New York.
Undercover Architect suggests that the way in which architects position themselves in the practice urgently needs to change: the
creation of tangible artifacts requires more, not less practical involvement and greater application of comprehensive competencies in
the field. Besides providing an in-depth account of the evolution of this specific project in Harlem, it is also aimed at helping the next
generation of architects eager to make extraordinary designs through a proper understanding of the playing field and engagement
with hands on design-build activities.
