Beschreibung

This optional module, allows for various kinds of research studies in collaboration with planned or ongoing re-search projects. It is closely linked to the five units of the School of Architecture and is undertaken individually or in small teams of students. Supervision consists of guiding students towards clear results in a particular area of research. The research project is reviewed before a panel of experts from the supervising research unit.

Built Heritage & Upcycling Unit:
Would you also like to be a border crosser and cross borders with us? Ernst Sommerlad (1895-1977) was one of the first architects in the Principality of Liechtenstein and brought the architectural language of Modernism here. Despite the most adverse political circumstances, he did not allow himself to be limited by borders either architecturally or physically, and also built in Germany, Vorarlberg, St. Gallen, Appenzell and Graubünden. On the occasion of a symposium at the University of Liechtenstein in the fall of 2025, we will analyze the fast and exciting oeuvre of Sommerlad under close scientific scrutiny in cooperation with the country and the OST (Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences)
