Content
Valid 01.08.2020-31.07.2022:
This course provides a broad overview of building not only as a technical and practical endeavor, but also as a subject of theoretical inquiry. The course is organized thematically, surveying work from a range of historical periods including the present. Using readings and analysis of selected texts and buildings students work toward a better understanding of the ways in which theories of architecture, representation and aesthetics intersect with the material and technical concerns of building.
