Rethinking Architecture Education:Wsaseda Bauhaus School in Saga
−Maria Cecillia Loschiavo dos SantosIn many way universities around the world we are facing the challenging situation of teaching architecture.The common questions we professors have in mind are such as;
1-how to provide creative education on architecture ?
2-how to provide a critical education on contemporary issues of architecture?
3-how to estimulate an education system that empowers the process of design?
Waseda Bauhaus School is bringing an important contribution in order to answer the questions above.It brings light to a difficult and contemporary issue.It constitutes a new way to think about architecture education. It is a new way to move between design and life.
Waseda Bauhaus School and Ishiyama's methodoiogy are developing unexplored notions on architecture and design education,that offers an unique and fresh perspective for those concerned with the issue.From time to time,in the whole history of design education, there were some revolutionary and visionary expiriences,like Bauhaus,(Germany),Hochschule fur Gestaltung Ulm,(Germany),Universidade Nacional de Brasilia,(Brazil).Waseda Bauhaus School is on the same way.
In a nice and friendly atomosphere in Saga city,bringing toghether many international contributions and some of important architects,such as Arata Isozaki,Osamu Ishiyama,Tadao Ando,Waseda Bauhaus is making history.
The main issue of Waseda Bauhaus Schoolinsaga is Life Space inthe city,what bribgs us an oppotunity to rethink not only the current situation of design education,but also the role of architecture and architects in contemporary society,in a time where everything was already designed and created.
In a quick conversation with Tadao Ando,last Friday, he said"the main ploblem in developed countries is that there will be no longer need for architecture and our concern will be how to create needs for architecture and how to create jobs?"There is no quick answer,in a fast food style.It is time for a reflexive attitude and I am sure Waseda Bauhaus is an exellent experience and contribution to answer Ando's question.
