The course offers an overview of current issues in contemporary Austrian architecture. Starting with a theoretical introduction the course continues with several visiting lecturers (mostly young austrian architects) who demonstrate their professional fields.

This course examines recent developments in contemporary architecture with particular emphasis on the issue of how the architectural discourse is constructed. This semester we will again present several young successful female and male architects who work in various areas of the architecture profession and who will show their work.
