New concentration launching in 2025-2026

The Illinois School of Architecture’s concentration in History, Theory and Preservation provides an opportunity for architects to ask (and answer) big questions about why we build and for whom. Why do we take care of some places and return to them over and over? Why do we demolish others and let places decay? How can we understand the world through its build environment – and understand our own backyards?

As we prepare to launch the HTP concentration, we encourage you to explore these issues with us this fall in ARCH 419: Historic Building Preservation. This three credit hour course introduces historic preservation, legal, financial, and administrative assistance, graphic examination of restored buildings and sites, and application of conservation technology. It is required for the concentration.

Join us this Monday at 5:30pm in ARCH 120 for our FINAL installment of the Spring 2025 Lecture Series, “Ecologies of Design”

Focusing on planetary politics in early-twentieth century Germany, this lecture traces ecological notions of building to imperialist expansion and the spectre of fascism. These legacies ask us to reconsider how design accounts for human responsibility in a context of radical ecological interdependency.

Kenny Cupers is Professor of Architectural History and Urban Studies at the University of Basel, where he co-founded and leads the Urban Studies division. Trained as an architect, urbanist, and historian, his research and teaching focus on the relationship between built environments and changing societies in African and European contexts.
