About

The Architecture and Gender - Introduction course offered by KTH Royal Institute of Technology aims at providing tools for pursuing feminist interpretations of architecture and by extension creating new architecture.

Overview

What you will study

In the Architecture and Gender - Introduction course, offered by KTH Royal Institute of Technology, we will study contemporary feminist theory and architectural practices and investigate how buildings and other built or arranged structures relate to them. 

The course consists of a series of 10-12 lectures combined with workshop-assignments and seminar discussions.

Programme Structure

The program focuses on:

  • Study contemporary feminist theory and architectural practices and investigate how buildings and other built or arranged structures relate to them. 
  • Pursue a feminist critique of architectural culture and its relation to sexuality, ethnicity, class, and as preserving power in relation to ’masculinist’ aesthetics and taste. 
  • The course is structured around a series of concepts, such as for example hetero normativity, gender performance, and intersectionality, that are discussed in their relation to architecture.
