This course provides students with a rigorous methodology to comprehend and analyze architectural spaces through proper historical training, as well as the ability to interpret architecture in all its various aspects -tectonic-spatial, material, stylistic, symbolic, functional, urban, as well as in combination with other expressive fields (decorative elements, sculptures, paintings). The act of analyzing and examining a piece of architecture also means relating it to other pieces of architecture, looking for connections, associations, inspirations and developments, not only within the same time frame, but also throughout history. In other words, this course aims to develop students' ability to compare and interpret architecture.
This course aims to introduce students to a systematic understanding of the history of contemporary architecture through a critical-interpretative analysis of the most emblematic figures and movements of modern architecture.
