Design is Research
2014 Spring Lecture Series
The 2014 Architecture Lecture Series – “Design Is Research” - seeks to actively examine architecture on its own terms as a creative activity with specific disciplinary tendencies, preoccupations, and transformational modes of operation.
Design Is Research is framed as a polemic, confronting the widely held assumption that architectural production and scholarly research are unrelated endeavours.
This lecture series exemplifies the strategy of The Abedian School, which seeks to develop a body of creative work and rigorous study around focused questions of formal, technical, and cultural concern.
