AHO WORKS STUDIES 2012-2013
Institutes and People
The studies at The Institute of Form, Theory and
History (FTH) revolve around three focal points;
ar-
chitectural practice, architectural history
and
building
preservation.
By engaging in the full spectre of Archi-
tecture, FTH enables a free transmission of ideas across
traditional boundaries: past and present, theory and
practice, fiction and reality etc. FTH has a high inter-
national standing and maintains a broad institutional
and personal network.
The FTH faculty, counting around 30 Architects,
Architectural historians, Artists and Philosophers,
teaches at all academic levels, from first year studio via
master studios, elective courses and diploma level, to the
PhD programme. In addition, FTH offers a post-profes-
sional Master of Architectural Conservation. Courses
at FTH are closely linked to Architectural practice and
to ongoing research conducted within OCCAS, the Oslo
Centre for Critical Architectural Studies.
The first year studio introduces the students to the
complexity of Architecture and includes courses in
freehand drawing, workshop practices, computer-aid-
ed design, material technology and Architecture-
Art- and Design history. The practice-based master’s
studies include studios on preservation and reuse,
experimental studios focused on methods and forms
of expression, and more traditional, program-driven
design-studios. The research-based studios focus on
architectural history and historiography, design histo-
ry, drawing, critical conservation and transformation
of historical structures, contemporary architecture, as
well as museums, models and architectural exhibitions.
FTH offers a wide variety of elective courses, span-
ning from classes on history, theory and literature to
classes on traditional building technology, book pro-
duction and more.
