Words in Place: Critical Architectural Messages on the Surface of the City

Annual Meeting Proceedings

Author(s): Angeliki Sioli

This paper examines an alternative approach for the teaching of architectural theory in the context of the Mexican city of Puebla. After a short description of the local context and a presentation of the course (syllabus, readings, assignments) it unpacks in detail—and through specific examples—the “Words in Place� project, elaborating on its pedagogical objectives and the opportunities it provides for the teaching of theory as a way to cultivate an ethical position.
