From WikiHouse to Assemble, anonymity and democracy in architectural design are receiving ever more attention and respect. Emphasis on these priorities can be understood historically as a flowering of an English left wing tradition of ideological and ethical vernacular revival that has roots in the nineteenth century with John Ruskin, William Morris and the Arts and Crafts Movement. Led by Peter Guillery, this lecture takes those origins as a given and sketches a lesser known history of continuity through the twentieth century. Situating Architecture is a new architectural history lecture series on Monday lunchtimes at The Bartlett School of Architecture. Lectures are free and open to members of the public on a first come, first seated basis. Places are limited so early arrival is recommended.
