What defines architectural quality?
Is it based on physical facts? Do the architect's intentions and ideas provide the keys to the building's evaluation? Is it a matter of cultural context? Does it lie in the eye of the beholder? Or is it a combination of all of these?
How do architects, critics or historians define architectural quality? Are there any general methods and theories of architectural quality?
Do we need these at all?
Keynote Lecturers include:
Silvia Arango, Bogotá, Colombia
William J. Curtis, Cajarc, France
Mpho Matsipa, Johannesburg, South Africa
Rahul Mehrotra, Mumbai, India
The online format of the four-session conference allows for active debate between the audience and lecturers. Presentations will be concentrated to allow for ample discussion time. Besides the four keynote lectures, there will be a maximum of 12 short papers. The entire conference will be recorded and placed on Youtube.
The conference language will be English.
Registration for free attendance will open on September 2, 2022 via icaq.register@gmail.com.
