This collection of previously unpublished essays from a diverse
range of well-known scholars and architects builds on the
architectural tradition of phenomenological hermeneutics as
developed by Dalibor Veseley and Joseph Rykwert and carried on by
David Leatherbarrow, Peter Carl and Alberto Perez-Gomez. Taking an
interdisciplinary approach and drawing on ideas from beyond the
architectural canon, contributors including Kenneth Frampton, David
Leatherbarrow, Juhani Pallasmaa, Karsten Harries, Steven Holl,
Indra Kagis McEwen, Paul Emmons, and Louise Pelletier offer new
insights and perspectives on questions such as the following: Given
the recent fascination with all things digital and novel, what is
the role of history and theory in contemporary architectural
praxis? Is authentic meaning possible in a technological
environment that is so global and interconnected? What is the
nature and role of the architect in our shared modern world? How
can these questions inform a new model of architectural praxis?
Architecture's Appeal is a thought-provoking book which will
inspire further scholarly inquiry and act as a basis for discussion
in the wider field as well as graduate seminars in architectural
theory and history.

Through a selection of essays from the Journal of Architectural
Education (JAE) and its 75-year history, this volume showcases not
only the development of a single publication but also the evolution
and expansion of the entire discipline. This book celebrates the
rich history of the JAE which is the longest continually running
peer-reviewed journal in the discipline of architecture, as a major
platform for the dissemination of new pedagogical and scholarly
ideas. From discourses on drawing and design processes to issues of
new media and the environment, The Evolving Project is a journey in
space and time that documents the changing project of architectural
education after World War II-namely its transformation from a
professional training ground to an intellectual platform that
allowed architectural educators to boldly engage the larger social,
cultural, and political issues of their time.
