About Architecture (arb/riba Part 2) March in Kingston University

The Department of Architecture and Landscape at Kingston School of Art has established a clear position within the UK context of architectural education. Our concern with continuity in architectural culture, and in making work which is sensitive to situation and context, places us in a notional community of European schools in places as diverse as Ireland, Switzerland, Scandinavia and Iberia. The graduating practitioner from Kingston is a generalist capable of thinking and making, with the technical and critical skills required to be both nimble and empowered to act in today's diverse architectural culture.

Our exceptional workshops and creative ethos speak of the inherent dynamic of how we see architectural knowledge generated. This course is staffed by a wide range of distinguished practitioners and academics, with every design studio taught by a practicing architect. The course features a diverse range of design approaches rooted in a common ethos, and often involving 'live-build' projects, recently for the Barbican in London and Kunstmuseum, Bonn.

Our students and staff continue to win prestigious industry awards, including regular successes in the RIBA President's Medals.
