Paperback. Condition: New. 1. Conceived as a compendium and reference for students, teachers, researchers, and practitioners of architecture and urbanism, this book looks into current topics in urban design and development: What is the role of architecture in urban transformation? How can architectural practice respond to challenges such as climate change, migration, social segregation, or technology and mobility? And above all, how to teach urbanism and urban design in a timely way and make it relevant for research? As a written dialogue between participants of the 2023 Lucerne Talks conference, the texts offer a shared understanding of applying different, multidisciplinary approaches, attitudes, and methods in tackling these challenges.Teaching Urbanism is also a call for taking responsibility and position in political, social, and cultural matters and with regard to planning policies.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Jonathan Sergison is an architect and cofounder of the London and Zurich-based Sergison Bates Architects. Since 2008, in addition to design work, Sergison has taught as professor of design and construction at the Academy of Architecture in Mendrisio, Switzerland. In an exhibition on the relationship between teaching and practice for the Sixteenth International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, he shows how deeply connected these two passions are. Published to coincide with the Venice Biennale, Teaching/Practice takes the form of an interview on the interplay between these two fundamental aspects of Sergisons practice, conducted by Irina Davidovici, an architect and senior research assistant at ETH Zurichs Institute for the History and Theory of Architecture. The book also offers five essays by Sergison, in which he explores some of the central issues his work addresses. In A Teaching Position, he questions the level of ability students ought to have when graduating from architecture school. In Twenty-One Lessons Learnt, he discusses what he has learned from his practice over the first two decades. Reflections on the European City explores an urban architecture of uniformity for a society of diversity, while Brutalism Remembered deals with the legacy of brutalism, and Re-use suggests an approach to an urban heritage shaped by the past. This book offers Sergison's reflections on practice and teaching in architecture in a conversation and four previously unpublished essays.
