Originally scheduled to take place in Edinburgh in June 2020, the 2021 conference is entirely online due to the extraordinary circumstances of the global pandemic. An online conference will be a different kind of conference to the usual one. But in the last year-and-a-half we have all learned new ways of communicating, organising, and exchanging ideas, all of which will enrich an already excellent conference. The European Architectural History Network came into existence in 2005, and is an international network promoting all kinds of research and education in architectural history. The biannual conference is EAHN’s biggest event. This year’s conference in Edinburgh follows successful conferences in Guimarães, Brussels, Turin, Dublin, and most recently (2018) Tallinn. EAHN remains free to join, and its journal Architectural Histories is open access. EAHN’s activities are supported by its conferences, the biannual conference above all. By registering for EAHN2021, you directly support EAHN’s mission and its remarkable range of activities. This year’s conference features thirty paper sessions, and three plenary lectures. The paper sessions have the range you expect from EAHN. From drive-in architecture, to planning under state socialism, to the role of women in the architecture of medieval Europe, to public health in the early modern world—this is a global, transhistorical, and interdisciplinary event. The three plenary lectures deal with topics of real urgency this year: the impact of Black Lives Matter, the place of mass housing, and interdisciplinarity for architectural historians. As well as the main programme, the conference also has meetings for special interest groups, a virtual book fair and a set of Edinburgh site videos, which will bring the city to you wherever you are. We wish you all the best for an excellent EAHN2021. Welcome to Edinburgh!

  • Lycée Français Charles De Gaulle Damascus, Syria
    2013 On Site Review Report 4032.SYR by Wael Samhouri Lycée français Charles de Gaulle Damascus, Syria Architect Ateliers Lion Associés, Dagher, Hanna & Partners Client French Ministry of Foreign Affairs Design 2002 - 2006 Completed 2008 Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle Damascus, Syria I. Introduction The Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle in Damascus, a school that houses 900 students from kindergarten up to baccalaureate level, is a garden-like school with classrooms integrated into an intricate system of courtyards and green patios. The main aim of the design was to set a precedent: a design in full respect of the environment that aspires to sustainability. Consequently it set out to eliminate air conditioning and use only natural ventilation, cooling, light/shadows and so economise also on running costs. The result is a project that fully reflects its aims and translates them into a special architectural language of forms with rhythms of alternating spaces, masses, gardens and a dramatic skyline rendered by the distinct vertical elements of the proposed solar chimneys. II. Contextual Information A. Brief historical background This is not an ordinary school, one that is merely expected to perform its educational functions although with a distinguishing characteristic: doing everything in French within an Arab country. Rather, it is a school with a great deal of symbolism and history attached to it. To illustrate this, suffice to say that this school, begun in 2006, was formally inaugurated by the French President himself. On a 2008 hot September Damascene morning, in the presence of world media, President Nicolas Sarkozy and the Syrian Minister of Education attended the formal opening of the school, in the hope of establishing a new phase of Franco-Syrian educational relations.

  • The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE)
    ABSTRACT MARY ELIZABETH BLUME The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE) The Gothic Revival of the nineteenth century in Europe aroused a debate concerning the origin of a style already six centuries old. Besides the underlying quandary of how to define or identify “Gothic” structures, the Victorian revivalists fought vehemently over the national birthright of the style. Although Gothic has been traditionally acknowledged as having French origins, English revivalists insisted on the autonomy of English Gothic as a distinct and independent style of architecture in origin and development. Surprisingly, nearly two centuries later, the debate over Gothic’s nationality persists, though the nationalistic tug-of-war has given way to the more scholarly contest to uncover the style’s authentic origins. Traditionally, scholarship took structural or formal approaches, which struggled to classify structures into rigidly defined periods of formal development. As the Gothic style did not develop in such a cleanly linear fashion, this practice of retrospective labeling took a second place to cultural approaches that consider the Gothic style as a material manifestation of an overarching conscious Gothic cultural movement. Nevertheless, scholars still frequently look to the Isle-de-France when discussing Gothic’s formal and cultural beginnings. Gothic historians have entered a period of reflection upon the field’s historiography, questioning methodological paradigms. This

  • Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas
    5 Six Canonical Projects by Rem Koolhaas has been part of the international avant-garde since the nineteen-seventies and has been named the Pritzker Rem Koolhaas Architecture Prize for the year 2000. This book, which builds on six canonical projects, traces the discursive practice analyse behind the design methods used by Koolhaas and his office + OMA. It uncovers recurring key themes—such as wall, void, tur montage, trajectory, infrastructure, and shape—that have tek structured this design discourse over the span of Koolhaas’s Essays on the History of Ideas oeuvre. The book moves beyond the six core pieces, as well: It explores how these identified thematic design principles archi manifest in other works by Koolhaas as both practical re- Ingrid Böck applications and further elaborations. In addition to Koolhaas’s individual genius, these textual and material layers are accounted for shaping the very context of his work’s relevance. By comparing the design principles with relevant concepts from the architectural Zeitgeist in which OMA has operated, the study moves beyond its specific subject—Rem Koolhaas—and provides novel insight into the broader history of architectural ideas. Ingrid Böck is a researcher at the Institute of Architectural Theory, Art History and Cultural Studies at the Graz Ingrid Böck University of Technology, Austria. “Despite the prominence and notoriety of Rem Koolhaas … there is not a single piece of scholarly writing coming close to the … length, to the intensity, or to the methodological rigor found in the manuscript

These buildings are significant in their local communities, but the numbers of people who visit them each year are minuscule when compared with the numbers visiting Australia's most famous Romanesque building, the large Sydney retail complex known as the Queen Victoria Building. God and Mammon, and the Romanesque serves them both. Do those who come to pray in the cathedrals, and those who come to shop in the galleries of the QVB, take much notice of the architecture? Probably not, and yet the Romanesque is a style of considerable character, with a history stretching back to Antiquity. It was never extensively used in Australia, but there are nonetheless hundreds of buildings in the Romanesque style still standing in Australia's towns and cities. Perhaps it is time to start looking more closely at these buildings? They will not disappoint. The heyday of the Australian Romanesque occurred in the fifty years between 1890 and 1940, and it was largely a brick-based style. As it happens, those years also marked the zenith of craft brickwork in Australia, because it was only in the late nineteenth century that Australia began to produce high-quality, durable bricks in a wide range of colours.
