The seminar investigates the potential and the limitations of architectural criticism. The course comprises theoretical reflection, discussions of architectural objects, as well as work on texts.

Meanwhile, over 4 million people worldwide died as a result of Corona, and the climate crisis is advancing, our construction industry is responsible for 38% of CO2 emissions. The time has never been so pressing. Let's start critique the status quo. Let's start writing.
