About the Course

Hello and welcome to URBDP 587, Preservation and the Vernacular Environment. This is a required course for students in Track II of the Preservation Planning and Design Certificate. I would strongly recommend this course to graduate students in the design and planning desciplines (architecture, landscape and urban design and planning) who are interested in understanding their everyday environment. The term "preservation" in the title is used broadly to include methodological and theoretical aspects of the field of historic preservation that intersects with urban planning, architecture, landscape architecture, (cultural) geography and sociology.

Vernacular Architecture Forum

Consider joining the Vernacular Architecture Forum for the duration of the course. The forum was formed in 1980 to encourage the study and preservation of everyday resources. The forum also publishes the now annual journal; Perspectives in Vernacular Architecture, we will be reading from in this course.
