Taught by Professor Richard Sommer, Exploring Design Practices introduces students to the practice of architecture and its allied disciplines through a series of presentations by an array of leading practitioners and scholars.
The emphasis is on a diversity of vocations pursued by individuals with architectural training both inside and outside the field. Presentations and conversations will go beyond the case studies and examples of architecture and design typically presented in lecture-based courses to probe the ideas and influences speakers have drawn on, whom they collaborate with, and the background frameworks to their work.
The following lecture is open to all members of the Daniels community as well as to the public. Taking place in the Main Hall in the Daniels Building at 1 Spadina Crescent. Registration is not required.
