What is rural? What do we call rural architecture? The title of the new series of a + t magazine questions what we have known so far as rural context, the limits of which are increasingly diffuse. This first issue identifies pieces of very different scales which aim to provide architecture for those who inhabit the countryside, both human and non-human.
