Commutes to alternative workplaces: GHG emissions and physical activity
In Europe, remote work is increasing, driven by technological advances and behavioural shifts. Working from home may potentially reduce commuting-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, but can also remove incidental physical activity during commutes. Alternative work locations, such as co-working spaces, are a third option, with potential impacts on travel-related emissions and physical activity. This paper examines commuting behaviours of remot…
Working at home: Tactics to reappropriate the home
During industrialisation, work and home were mentally and physically divided. Nevertheless, homes are important workspaces. However, contemporary homes are not designed to accommodate work, and the home as a space of work has received scant attention from architectural scholarly work. How homeworkers navigate the spatial constraints of contemporary homes and create their workspaces remains underexplored. This paper investigates the tactics indivi…
Spatial (in)justice shaping the home as a space of work
Drawing on an extensive literature review, this study examines how injustices manifest in space and the role of space in engendering injustices when associated with working at home. Findings illustrate, first, that by defining the home as a space of non-work positioned in the private sphere renders invisible work at home, the worker within, as well as the material and immaterial conditions under which they work. This invisibility conduces to inju…
The unfitness of dwellings: Why spatial and conceptual boundaries matter
The boundaries of work and home are constantly evolving. Working from home challenges the prevailing understandings of what a home is supposed to be and do, and what work is. Currently, most research around working from home and architecture focuses on spatial and functional qualities of homes that facilitate work productivity, highlighting inhabitants’ struggle with integrating work in their homes. Instead of further identifying challenges, this…
Challenging methodologies: Deploying liberatory epistemologies to unlock creative research practices
Departing from the methodological story of my doctoral research and deploying feminist, postcolonial, and decolonial epistemologies, this article explores the double connotation of the phrase 'challenging methodologies'. On the one hand, the article reviews the process of my doctoral research, the challenges I faced, and how these oriented my methodological decisions. On the other hand, it examines the three methodologies I chose - grounded theor…
Vademecum77 Minor Terms for Writing Urban Places: 77 Minor Terms for Writing Urban Places
Vademecum: 77 Minor Terms for Writing Urban Places offers a set of concepts that stimulate new approaches in planning, architecture, urban design, policy and other practices of spatial development. These diverse concepts might reveal blind spots in urban discourse or bring insights from one discipline to another. The term 'minor' refers to the ambition to look at the local and social specificity of urban places, and to challenge established discu…
