N2  - This book investigates how architecture can shape an open-minded and inclusive society, highlighting three internationally renowned projects: the White Mosque in Visoko, Bosnia-Herzegovina (1980); the Islamic Cemetery Altach in Altach, Austria (2012); and the Superkilen public park in Copenhagen, Denmark (2012). 0Scholarly essays across various disciplines, along with interviews with the architects and users of these projects, provide intriguing insights into architecture?s ability to bridge cultural differences. Soliciting a wide array of questions about migration, transculturalism, visibility, inclusion, and exclusion, the book sheds light on the long-term social processes generated between architectural form and its users.0Architecture of Coexistence offers a truly interdisciplinary perspective on a very timely subject:?Building pluralism? means designing for a respectful inclusion of different cultural needs, practices, and traditions. 0With contributions by Azra Ak?amija, Mohammad al-Asad, Ali S. Asani, Simon Burtscher-Matis, Amila Buturovic, Farrokh Derakhshani, Robert Fabach, Eva Grabherr, Amra Had?imuhamedovic, Tina Gudrun Jensen, Jennifer Mack, Nasser Rabbat, Barbara Steiner, Helen Walasek and Wolfgang Welsch.0Photo essays by Velibor Bo?ovic, Cemal Emden, Jesper Lambaek, and Nikolaus Walter
