A Look at the Classroom
March 2023
Our second issue, A Look at the Classroom offers a glimpse into architectural education. For many of us, our time as students has shaped our understanding of architecture and has had a profound impact on our worldview. But how clearly do we understand the mechanisms at work in our architectural education? What goes into teaching architecture? Curious, we approached this theme through experimental written conversations, storytelling, and photography.
The issue includes Teaching, etc., an annotated conversation between Ekin Erar and Leyuan Li; Class Talk, a conversation with Zaid Kashef Alghata; and Empty, Learning Space in the COVID Era, an image essay by Leonid Furmansky.
Our previous thread, published in January (2023), asked the question “Who Gets to Write?” and featured a panel discussion in addition to texts by Stefan Novakovic, Matthew Allen, and Mai Okimoto. Our threads are always open, and this month we are adding an article to our January thread: Your Way to Work, an essay by Sebastián López Cardozo and Lauren Phillips.
