The study of the architectural discipline suffers from an increasing
disconnect between its teaching and its professional practice. In this
edited collection, 18 architectural voices address this disconnect by
reflecting on the ways in which they exercise the architectural
discipline in three ways: research, teaching, and practice. This book
argues that the totality of activities encompassed by the
architectural profession can be best fulfilled when reconsidering the
critical interactions between these three fields in the everyday
exercise of the profession. Split into three parts, "Architecture as
Research," Architecture as Pedagogy," and "Architecture as Practice,"
each section focuses on one of these three dimensions while
establishing continuity with the other two. In doing so, the book not
only favors a more fulfilling interaction between academia and the
profession but also reinforces the implementation of design theory and
research in everyday teaching and practice. The contributions come
from 18 teams of architects operating from geographically diverse
locations, including Pezo von Ellrichshausen in Chile, Kengo Kuma &
Associates in Japan, Barclay & Crousse in Peru, Shift in Iran,
Heinrich Wolff in South Africa, and People’s Architecture Office in
China, opening the design conversation to larger contexts and framing
continuity and inclusion in time. Written for students, instructors,
and practitioners alike, the inspiring reflections in this volume
encourage readers to grow as architects and play an instrumental role
in transforming the built environment.
