With April comes springtime, and a proliferation of reproduction symbols laden with the sticky pollen of the universal allergen – sex. We're devoting our next editorial issue on Archinect to themes of sex and sexuality in architecture, and we want you to submit (to our open call).

Effective immediately, we're accepting written and design work under the following guidelines:

》EDITORIAL SUBMISSIONS: Architecture "Penthouse" Letters
A skyscraper is never just a skyscraper – architecture, in its lines and curves, interiors and textures, is a sensual object. Its space and substance are all around us, and we spend our lives in a passionate, long-lasting relationship with it. Now, we want to hear how that admiration, devotion, fantasy, fetish, straight-up procreation – or whatever gets you going – intertwines with architecture. However architecture and sex become one in the same, send us your tales of architecture erotica.

》PROJECT SUBMISSIONS: Sex Aware Design
We're looking for projects that were explicitly designed with sex in mind – where sex, and sexuality (embracing or excluding it) are part of the project's program from the beginning. These can be anything designer objects to architectural works, and need not be built.

DEADLINE TO SUBMIT:

The call for submissions is open immediately, and will close Wednesday, April 27 at 11:59 pm (PST).
