Miscellaneous Tactics: The Architecture, etc. of OJT examines the work of the New Orleans-based Office Jonathan Tate (OJT). Established in 2011, the firm has emerged as a leading voice within a new generation of architects engaged in the contemporary city. Rather than waiting for institutional or market-driven commissions, OJT pursues a proactive approach, creating their own opportunities, platforms, and development frameworks to realise architectural work on their own terms. Through 15 featured designs, built and unrealised, as well as research projects, the book demonstrates how OJT strategically engages the specific conditions that shape architectural production today, including local policy, real estate mechanisms, and financial structures. By operating within and against these systems, the practice crafts the ideological and material conditions for their projects. The result is a body of work that ranges from inventive housing prototypes to urban research initiatives, each reflecting a belief in architecture’s capacity to intervene meaningfully in the city.
