Asylum design research journal is produced by Unitec’s School of Architecture and published annually by ePress, Unitec’s publishing platform. The 2024 edition marks thirty years of the School of Architecture, and over twenty years of the publication, named for the former hospital building that originally housed the School. A highlight of the academic year, showcasing student work and scholarly articles, the journal also presents some of the school’s many events and community initiatives. Offering broad opportunities for past and present student and staff research, Asylum continues to be published as both a printed and online resource. The editorial team is committed to a scholarly open-access publishing model for the journal, and our intention is to continue to grow Asylum to reach a diverse audience in Aotearoa New Zealand and internationally.

This section presents peer-reviewed articles by architects, landscape architects, architectural historians, artists and lecturers, on a diverse range of interconnected subjects.
