Studio Wikitecture's central aim is to apply an open-source paradigm to the design and production of architecture and urban planning. In much the same way Wikipedia enables a loose, self-organizing network of contributors to collaborate on content creation, SW has been experimenting with ways to bring together a diverse and geographically disperse community of individuals to create an architecturally noteworthy design that, in the end, is more than the sum of its parts.
