• ARCH 8060: Arch, Society & Culture

  3.00 Credits

  Clemson University

  
  Contemporary architecture is largely defined by unresolved discussions about the conflictive relationship between architectural design and the complexity of the world around it. Understanding that architecture is never built merely on projects, forms or designs, this seminar focuses on the discussion of ideas about how contemporary architecture resists or surrenders to different forces in contemporary society: cultural trends; political actions and ideas; social identities, norms, and regulations; consumer products; images; social media; and others such forces.

  Clemson University

  
  Study of the correlation between narrative and architecture as two dimensions of urban life in view of increasing concerns about social inequalities and ecological deficit. Coursework involves readings in philosophy and architectural theory; multi-media analyses of architectural case studies in different scales; and writing a manifesto.
