Yale School of ArchitectureYale Graduate Architecture Students from classes of 2022-2025

Yale Graduate Architecture Students from classes of 2022-2025 Beginning in the Spring 2018 semester, the Yale School of Architecture Gallery launched a program to give students the opportunity to curate and stage exhibitions. The content is driven by student proposals and strives to be responsive to current interests and concerns in the school, while remaining open to the unique perspectives that stem from the breadth of our students backgrounds and outlooks. With the 2022-23 academic year, the North Gallery was able to return to a schedule of presenting three exhibitions per semester. This publication collects the six entries that graced our walls over that period. They vary widely in subject matter and format but share an intensity and passion for sharing their observations, meditations, and fruits. They vary widely in subject matter and format but all use designed space and displayed objects to mediate issues of the natural and artificial, time and

What About Learning?

Yale School of ArchitectureWhat about Learning? focuses on how architectural education and learning at large faced ongoing disruptions and pressures under the COVID-19 pandemic and how we can reimagine learning environments.

Eero Saarinen Visiting Professor Deborah Saunt with Jane Wong and Timothy Newton This books focuses on “What about Learning?” a studio led by Deborah Saunt of DSDHA, in London in terms of how architectural education and learning at large faced ongoing disruptions and pressures under the COVID-19 pandemic.

Yale School of ArchitectureRetrospecta catalogs activity at the Yale School of Architecture. Each volume is a snapshot of evolving architectural and graphic design trends.

Krista Lebovitz, Tony Salem Musleh, Ugen Yonten, Zicheng (Roy) Zhang Each year, Retrospecta celebrates exceptional student work and aims to capture what distinguishes an education at the School of Architecture. Much of what makes Yale unique stems from the varied and hearty experiences within its academic structure: the 6on7s, the Thursday receptions, the events that unfold between lunchtime and studio. While the schedule of classes brings order and reason, it is also the scaffolding upon which moments of inquiry and whimsy take place. Yale's education is punctuated by the attention we give and the issues we tend to–it is this generosity within an academic structure that gives Rudolph Hall its texture and life. To reflect this layered and untidy experience–as studios, seminars, and day-to-day life occur simultaneously–Retrospecta 47 is structured in an alternating sequence, a weaving of sorts. Between the ordered strings of studios and seminars are the loose threads: a broader

Louis I. Kahn Visiting Assistant Professorship 11 Chris T Cornelius, Abeer Seikaly, Rodney Leon This book of three Kahn Visiting Assistant Professors at Yale School of Architecture includes the projects of Chris T. Cornelius focusing on “Decolonizing Indigenous Housing”; Abeer Seikaly “Conscious Skins” on materiality, making, and place; and Rodney Leon for a concept for a National Slavery Memorial in Washington, D.C. as a basis for redefining the memorial in general. The projects examined the larger cultural, political, and ideological issues on their sites with local communities and consciousness, materiality and craft, as ways to amplify inhabiting the land and the related social and spatial issues.
