Corrective historiographies for architectural research
The seminar will consist of a series of collective readings of selected texts.
This seminar avails itself of the complexities and richness of pre-1850 literary sources on architecture to explore and discuss some fundamental methodological questions: who writes about architecture and art, and why? What is a legitimate historical source? How can we gain access to it? How do we develop an at once historical and critical approach? How does mediation generate interpretation? Etc.
Some say that there are two ways to write about architecture: to look at ‘discourses full of objects’ or, conversely, at ‘objects full of discourses’. This doctoral seminar course radically explores the second approach by focussing on the ordinary ‘things’ that buildings are made of (e.g. toilets, elevators, but also bricks, or carpets) and extrapolating general concepts from them.
What new readings of architecture emerge when the objects of research are not the ever-changing «heroes», «pioneers» or the «key buildings», but instead a series of «things» like the various network of expertise, systems, and objects that at the same time shaped our built environment? The seminar will focus on the overlooked «anonymous» objects of history.
Architectural Ecology
History, Criticism and Theory in Architecture: Architectural Ecology
In this seminar we will, on the one hand, deal with the central strategies in the context of the climate crisis and get to know them by reading theoretical key texts. On the other hand, we will analyze concrete architectural case studies from Europe and Japan on this basis and thus examine these as well as the theoretical strategies for their potentials.

Advanced Topics in History and Theory of Architecture: Sacred space, sacred architecture?
Most religions assign certain spaces and objects a degree of sacrality. The actions surrounding sacrality reflect social and political hierarchies, gender codes, material practices, and economic realities. This seminar aims to critically understand the roles and functions assigned to architecture within the complex and often conflictual context of the sacred.
