This first issue of the second cycle of scopio Magazine [2 1/3], entitled Crossing borders and shifting boundaries: Architecture, focuses on the exploration of the concept of crossing and erecting boundaries in different fields of study and practices, aiming to present a comprehensive understanding of these problems connecting them to the imagery Photography and Architecture, in order to question our cultural values and the features of spaces and buildings.

This new cycle of scopio Magazine, Crossing borders and shifting boundaries, will help promote awareness and understanding about Documentary and Artistic Photography on what comes to its design as a tool to question Architecture, the City and the Territory.

This means understanding architecture as a discipline and practice with interest, on the one hand, in real space and its experiences and, on the other hand, in how architecture works with more comprehensive systems: social-cultural, technical and historical.
