Course Description

This course provides international students with an overview of Danish architecture and urban planning over the last 100 years with an emphasis on the human perspective of architecture. Examples of architecture with a Nordic approach to the planning and design of the physical environment are demonstrated. The course discusses the key elements of culture, climate, and scale in relations to the way the profession and the Nordic welfare states have been dealing with the international trends and styles as they have been translated into the local settings. Field trips to explore examples of the architecture and planning are important elements of this lecture based course.

Course Description
Planning and urban management systems vary considerably internationally. Differences in history, culture, ideology, law, economy, and society mean that there are significant differences in planning policies, planning law, and ultimately in the outcomes of planning systems. This course gives students an appreciation of how different planning systems operate. Given the number and variety of planning systems, only a selection of examples is examined by some guest speakers. In addition to the analysis of a selection of countries the European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP) is also examined.
