VAS Journal provides a platform for multidisciplinary research that transcends the traditional boundaries of architecture. It encourages contributions not only from architects and architectural historians but also from visual studies and writing scholars, photographers, artists, and others who examine the visionary aspects of architectural representation. By doing so, the journal fosters a broader discourse that enriches the field and enhances our understanding of the present and possible futures of our built environment. Although the term 'visionary' in the context of architecture is not new, we identify it as a lively and dynamic field that can benefit from a dedicated regular scientific publication. Visionary architecture has a vast and long tradition and is historically an unavoidable subject of study. It is strongly connected with the daily practice of architects, artists, and activists alike. Visionary Architecture employs a multiplicity of formats and covers a wide range of motivations. It can take the form of texts or representations, models, drawings, and images depicting imaginary worlds, cities, buildings, or undefined spaces. Often, it can be polemical, anti-systemic, political, idiosyncratic or pedagogical. Visionary practices have deep cultural, historical, and contextual variations; thus, the VAS journal is dedicated to international perspectives. Our journal pretend to foster diversity and actively will seek to explore representations across different regions and traditions. Through this, we aim to create a more inclusive and holistic perspective on the practice and study of architecture.
