I’m thrilled to have an essay titled “Southwestern Fantasy: Pueblo Revival and architectural authenticity in New Mexico” in a new volume of architectural essays from Routledge.
Region, edited by Simon Richards, Cagri Sanliturk, Robert Schmidt III, and Falli Palaiologou, is the latest in a series from the Architectural Humanities Research Association. The book will be published in late July 2023; the articles in the volume center around questions of regionality in architecture and urban studies. Learn more about the book here.
I will be writing more about my contribution to the volume in The Usonian newsletter in the months to come. Cheers!
This week’s post in The Usonian is the first of a five-part series, “Famagusta Collage,” on one of the most historically interesting cities in Cyprus across deep time. Read it here.

Thanks for reading!
