Description
In difference to history, this seminar course follows a thematic structure based on contemporary theoretic concepts and key texts. Each week is dedicated to a theoretic proposition (or philosophic provocation), which will be discussed in relation to architectural projects. This course offers an exercise in critical architectural thinking, explores the relationship between practice (building) and theory (interpretation), and asks for intensive participation in form of presenting, discussion and writing (scientific research paper).
