New article in Sustainability about architectural education strategies in sustainable buildings in Canada

Is it possible to teach lessons through formal language and architectural aesthetic features? Jean-Pierre Chupin, Morteza Hazbei and Karl-Antoine Pelchat looked into this question and elaborated many reflections on this subject in this new article published in the journal Sustainability (2021, 3, 8166).

Jean-Pierre Chupin, Morteza Hazbei and Karl-Antoine Pelchat wrote an article about architectural education strategies (AES) in sustainable buildings. Their research led them to conclude that there are three strategies for architectural education in buildings designed to disseminate knowledge in the field of sustainable architecture in Canada; the labeling approach, the experiential approach, and the iconic method. Architects are convinced that architectural communication forms can be used as a language accessible to non-experts. Future research may therefore challenge the very possibility of teaching through formal language and aesthetic features.
