This year’s Frank Gehry International Visiting Chair in Architectural Design, Douglas Cardinal, holds a conversation with students about architecture and the teaching of architecture. The discussion covers a number of topics, including: the principles of “organic” architecture, and how they might shape a student’s understanding of architecture; how Indigenous perspectives can be brought into the pedagogy of architecture schools; how schools of architecture can reach a wider community of potential architects; and the essential skills, knowledge, and perspective that a school of architecture should foster through its pedagogy.
