纯粹设计——20世纪初美国建筑教育转型一例

Pure Design A Transitional Case of American Architectural Education in the Early 20th Century

从世界格局出发铺设20世纪初美国建筑教育实践的宏观背景,试图对当时多种建筑教育思想并存的局面进行梳理。在此基础上,以埃米尔·洛奇的"纯粹设计"教育为例对建筑教育源流做出补充。20世纪美国建筑师、建筑教育家执着于树立本土文化自信,主动对于不同教学模式进行筛选、综合与推敲,他们无论在建筑教育还是社会活动中都表现出了不同于主流话语的独特思考。

Through a global view of American architectural education in the early 20th century, this paper tries to sort out the multiple sources of architectural education. By tracing Emil Lorch’s pedagogy based on a theory of Pure Design, the paper attempts to show how American architects and educators, obsessed in national culture, selected, integrated and developed various educational models, demonstrating unique reflections aside from the Eurocentric mainstream voice, both in architectural education and academic activities.
