Architecture School - Reality TV and Reality Blogs!

We have a new feature up - Liz Martin spends some time talking with the creators of a new reality television series aptly titled "Architecture School". The show, set to premiere tomorrow, August 20th, on the Sundance Channel, follows twelve students enrolled in the Design/Build Program at Tulane University's School of Architecture. The Reality (Show) of "Architecture School"

For those of you looking to document your own architecture school reality, we're recruiting new participants to the Archinect School Blog Project for the 2008-09 academic year. We're aiming to create a diverse collection of experiences to provide our audience with a glimpse into a variety of different architecture schools around the world.

Hello, Columbus

Paul Goldberger's review of the overhall at 2 Columbus Circle.

"Ultimately, Cloepfil has been trapped between paying homage to a legendary building and making something of his own. As a result... the buildingÂ’s proportions and composition seem just as odd and awkward as they ever did."

Wall House

Provoking international attention in the architecture world, the Wall House was completed in early 2007 in Santiago de Chile and almost immediately triggered a surprising wave of positive review, being published widely both in print and the blogosphere. In 2007 it was awarded the AR Emerging Architecture award in London, the NRW Design Award in Germany, and was nominated as one of the “Best International Works” at Italy’s BC Awards.
