Description:
Anchored Craftsmanship - 50 years of Rotterdam Academy of Architecture sheds light on the history of the only architectural education in the architectural city of the Netherlands. This book extensively discusses the vision on the disciplines of architecture and urban development that the Academy has developed in those fifty years. A vision that can best be summarized as 'anchored craftsmanship'.
The ingredients of this craftsmanship are subjected to critical consideration in this book, especially to enter into a discussion about the relevance of this craftsmanship for the future of architecture and urban planning and of education in this field.

A number of essays delve deeper into the specific methodology of academy education, the combination of study and practice, the major research projects and the relationship between school and city.
