    Dutch connections: Essays on international relationships in architectural history in honour of Herman van Bergeijk

    No full text
    Throughout his career, Herman van Bergeijk built his own unique expertise on the Dutch 19th and early 20th century architectural history. He has become an inspiration for scholars in the Netherlands, Europe and beyond. The extraordinary response of colleagues when asked to contribute a chapter in this Festschrift stands as an example of Herman’s widespread influence. Invitations for keynotes and lectures or courses keep reaching him, and he will continue to teach and write. He has an open invitation to teach in China and still bubbles with ideas for yet another new publication series or journal. Several PhD students continue to rely on his guidance and will keep him engaged at the faculty. Herman thrives on lively discussions, in which he often plays devil’s advocate and tries to be as contrary as possible. I am convinced that we will continue to collaborate and battle on diverse topics, notably the role of history in the design of future architecture. Retirement is just another step in Herman’s career.History, Form & AestheticsTeachers of Practice /

    Breaking the stigma : redefining the architectural image of FET colleges in South Africa

    No full text
    Includes bibliographical references.The initial topic of this thesis focused on ways in which architecture can help to bridge the gap between education and employment; a very real need in South Africa's economy of today, as stated in the February 2011 State of the Province Address by Premier of the Western Cape, Helen Zille. My research into this topic soon revealed that there are already existing models in place that aim to close this gap, namely Further Education and Training (FET) College facilities. According to the FET Act of 2006, the aim of these colleges is to provide post-compulsory general education with a focus on vocational training, while preparing students for occupational fields and increasing employment opportunities (Act No. 16 of 2006). After visiting several of these colleges within the Cape Town area, and interviewing the Campus Managers, it became apparent that the system is currently not working at its full potential. There are many reasons for this, which will be discussed later. One of the most pressing issues, however, is related to the campuses themselves. Many of the colleges have been given old and unused school buildings, or have taken over older college buildings that were designed for different purposes. This has diminished the campus usability and relevance, which has ultimately created a negative image of FET Colleges in general
