LESSONS
OF THE LAWN_ARCH1010_Professor
Peter Waldman
The
Lawn, a World Heritage Site, is at the immediate crossroads of daily
life at this University. Jefferson intended this architectural project
to be at the core of a fine arts curriculum. The Lawn was to serve
as a Model Text or Primer to guide students to develop architectural
literacy as a responsibility of citizenship. In this course, the
Lawn serves as a starting point in analyzing these civic values in
a series of case studies from around the world.
