Abstract

This article is based on a paper originally given as keynote address at the Ontario Association of Architects Convention, Toronto, March, 1988. Three issues are explored in this article: the historical background to the present situation in architecture and architectural education, with special reference to the work of Christian Norberg-Schulz, Robert Venturi, Colin Rowe, Bruno Zevi, Peter Eisenman and Michael Graves; the value of focussing again on the agenda of Norberg-Schulz's Intentions in Architecture (1962) as being a more reliable guide than the scattered opinions offered by other architects; a strategy for redesigning architectural education to reflect Norberg-Schulz's fundamental concerns about the role of architecture and architects, offering an integrated curriculum based upon a vertical rather than a horizontal structure of learning.
