MONU magazine is picking up on what they coined 'Unfinished Urbanism' to explore current urban realities, defined by flaws, imperfections, and failures. Opening the discussion is an interview with Mark Wigley, paving the way for the issue's discussion on unfinishedness, its great potential and possible shortcomings, embedded with a wide range of case study articles, representing stories, narratives, and examples beyond the dominating Eurocentric urban sphere. Critically reflecting on the static notion of architecture, Wigley is advocating against a reality that is defined through stability and completeness. His interest is precisely in unfinished realities, as they are opening up a space for creativity and flexibility to respond and accommodate the ever-changing nature of cities and contemporary urban realities. This understanding of unfinishedness as a necessity to respond to contemporary urban challenges runs as a read thread throughout the magazine. Unfinishedness is understood as crucial, as seemingly the only way to deal with the unpredictable nature that cities are facing today and surely will face in the future.
