ARCH 000/4937 - Seminar on Contemporary Architecture Discourse (3 cr.)
Prerequisites ARCH 352/3553 - Architectural Design Studio II (4 cr.)
Description This course attempts to question the assumption that local architects and designers have little value to add to the global design discourse. Readings and discussions over the presentations of a number of local designers on their works and design directions will be the channel to debate this issue against the backdrop of the concurrent global discourse. Students should emerge with a critical understanding of the contemporary architecture discourse in Egypt and express such an understanding within an effective theoretical format.
