The head, the heart and the hand: architecture and its place in the Academy
Journal Title: Architectural Studies - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Architecture is a mainstream subject in the academy. While the development of spatial imagination and aesthetic judgment are among its core components, a wide range of knowledge, skills and sensitivities are delivered as part of the design curriculum. This paper discusses the potential benefits, but also the risks, associated with the growing emphasis on academically-focused research in schools of architecture.
