‘Completion is both essential for, and antithetical to, innovation.’ Here, Gretchen Wilkins and Guest‐Editor Andrew Burrow attempt to resolve this generative paradox by going in search of ‘open‐to‐ending strategies in architectural practice’. They advocate the model of the ‘final draft’ in the design process as a means to bringing a project to a close while anticipating or encouraging future work.
