NoHomo! Architecture in the Realm of the Unreal The studio is prefaced by the phrase ‘no homo’. The term relieves an accused of any suggestion of homosexual tendencies, whilst permitting homosocial activities to occur. It is both a contemptible claim to an outward heteronormativity and an inward expression of same sex empathy. What is of interest to the studio is not the suggestion of suitability or inappropriateness of such a term but how the problematizing of the threshold between inside and outside as such contributes new insights into the production of space and the implications this problematizing has for new architectures.
