Zusammenfassung:Early German influences, immigration and assimilation -- The historical cases and a timeline of 200 years -- consolidation of the modernist approach in the US architectural education -- The current context and a map -- Trans-Atlantic engagements today: German educators currently at US schools of architecture -- The interviews with current educators.
The pedagogical experiments of the Bauhaus, imported by Gropius, Mies, Hilberseimer and others to the US system, challenged traditional Beaux-Arts thinking and played a crucial role in shaping modern architectural education. Historically, the German architectural training has been different from the Franco-Italian model. New interdisciplinary and technology-focused modes of teaching architecture and design had a long-lasting impact, however, are now again transformed by German-trained educators currently active in reshaping curricula. The conversations reveal the critical and independent thinking of this group of educators, and how they make a meaningful contribution to the discourse of architectural education appropriate to the 21st century. The book provides insight into the ways in which these German-born educators influence architectural and design education in the United States to this day
