Lecture series “Architectural Ethnography”

Architectural ethnography deals with the manifold forms of coexistence between people and architecture. In cooperation between HCU Hamburg, TU Berlin and the Netzwerk Architekturwissenschaft, the lecture series “Architectural Ethnography” will be held this summer term online. Given the growing challenges for the planning disciplines to make sensitive, situated and appropriate spatial interventions, this series is about discussing the potential of ethnography in analysis and design. Internationally guests from the fields of sociology, anthropology and architecture will provide insights into their architectural ethnographic practice and put theoretical and methodological considerations up for discussion. The series is curated by Sabine Hansmann (HCU Hamburg, Architecture, Space and Society), Lidia Gasperoni (TU Berlin, Architectural Theory) and Séverine Marguin (TU Berlin, SFB Re-Figuration von Räumen). We would like to thank the Sutor Stiftung for its financial support. 

All lectures take place online.
