RESEARCH INTERESTs
Lee’s current research is concerned with developing histories that connect architecture with the sweeping socio-cultural transformations centred on the 1960s, and informing understandings of the legacy of that turbulent period – especially the architectural and design strategies that have sought to respond to those transformations. He is particularly concerned to place these architectural practices within a global context and to think through the local articulation of international movements. Lee approaches this through intertwined historical research, critical writing and curatorial practices that rethink the boundaries of architecture, its conditions, and territories. Current areas of research include:
- Alternative and countercultural architecture of the 1960s and 1970s
- Experimental domesticity
- Architecture and spatial justice
- Architecture and the governance of circulation
