Students Consider Architecture's Materiality
This article addresses the struggle that architecture students undergo in their efforts to develop critical thinking regarding architecture's materiality. It describes work that evolved through a seminar entitled “Intention and Materiality,” which explored theoretical frameworks for a variety of historical, technological, contextual, and subjective issues affecting decisions about materials. This article briefly outlines the nature and structure of the seminar, and then provides a broad-based discussion and elaboration of students' ideas and concerns about the role of materials in architecture. Collectively, their ideas reveal inspiring insight and thoughtfulness about questions that are frequently of great concern to architects and educators today.
