Description
Rather than attempting to present a comprehensive survey of historical styles, lectures explore issues by focusing on particular designers, theorists and transitional moments. Such an approach is essential to an additional facet of the course, which is to address current beliefs and achievements. Assumptions about progress are acknowledged, as they have prevented the exploration of substantial relationships between a human being and a building.
