Fictions, taken in a broad sense, are part of the architect's daily practice. From the definition of the program to the design process, architects need narratives to guide their decision making. Fiction, in the strict sense, has also been present in different forms throughout the history of architecture, providing alternative ideas or offering favorable environments for speculation, and for the generation of discourses and criticism. "Fictions." offers a quick overview of the ways in which fiction has interacted historically with the discipline as a starting point to analyze the work of a new generation of architects who, working in a moment of particular blurring of boundaries between architecture and its periphery, use it in different ways. The first part analyzes the traditional use of fiction as a trigger for design processes, using the work of the American office Design With Company as a case study. Secondly, the text examines the phenomenon which, gathered around the discussion on architecture-fiction, finds architecture professionals gravitating towards the production of architectural fictions as an alternative field to practice the profession.
