in otherwards is the publishing imprint of Carnegie Mellon University School of Architecture.
Director and Editor-in-Chief: Tuliza Sindi
Editorial Board: Stefan Gruber, Francesca Torello, Tommy Yang
Brand & Publication Designer: Corinne Ang
in otherwards aims toward epistemic plurality, both foregrounding prominent thought and practice, as well as negated ones such as Indigenous, diasporic, and Global South perspectives. Through books, folios, and broadsheet formats, the imprint takes interest in critical explorations on how spatial vocabularies, technologies, materialities, and cosmologies shape the built environment, and how space, culture, technology, and power co-construct each other.
In this effort, publishing is treated as a form of worldmaking and unmaking, and a site for relationing expansive futures.

after school
"after school" attends to the material, political, and social conditions that shape public education today. Bringing together architects, artists, educators, students, and activists, the publication studies the states and stakes of schooling across classrooms, corridors, itinerant sites, and cooperative experiments. Developed alongside the exhibition of the same name at Carnegie Museum of Art, and co-produced with in otherwards, the new imprint of Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Architecture, "after school" examines how public education has been built, organized, contested, and reworked across its buildings as social infrastructures.

x-change 2025
Carnegie Mellon Architecture (CM—A) is proud to announce the launch of "x-change," our annual publication showcasing work from first-year students to Ph.D. candidates. Inaugurated in 2017 as "EX-CHANGE," the publication has since evolved into "x-change" to more pointedly reflect its role as a platform for critical discourse and reflection.
The book was designed by Studio Elana Schlenker and Jordi Ng, and edited by Tuliza Sindi, with co-editing support by Meredith Marsh. The exhibition of work from the publication, "Cabinets of Curiosities," was on view in the College of Fine Arts Great Hall from August 25 to September 5, 2025, and was designed by Jared Abraham and Heather Bizon.
