ARCH 8060 - Architecture, Society and Culture

3 Credits (3 Contact Hours)
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.
