The Architecture Design Studio awe-inspiring lectures

Each semester the Architecture Design Studio class (ARCH 410) taught at ISI Florence by Professor Franco Pisani features a series of guest lectures. The last one (September 15: “Unit 12 at Work”) was by Jonathan Hill, Professor of Architecture and Visual Theory and Director of the Ph.D. program at the prestigious Bartlett School of Architecture (University College, London). Professor Hill is the author of many books and essays, including “The Illegal Architect” (1998), “Actions of Architecture” (2003), “Drawing Research” (2006), “Immaterial Architecture” (2006), and “Weather Architecture” (2012). He has edited “Occupying Architecture” (1998), “Architecture: The Subject is Matter” (2001), and “Research by Design” (2003). He also co-edited both “Critical Architecture” (2007) and “Pattern” (2007). Furthermore, Hill is a commissioning editor of the “Ashgate Design Research” in “Architecture” book series. Venues for his solo exhibitions have included the Haus der Architektur (Graz, 1997), Architekturgalerie am Weissenhof (Stuttgart, 1998), and the Matthew Gallery (University of Edinburgh, 1999). His research has been translated into twelve languages.
