Canadian Architecture Since 1945

1.00 credits · Undergraduate

This course exposes students to the recent history of Canadian architecture, from the immediate post-war to the present. The conditions will be examined that led to and facilitated the spread of modernism as an important mode of architectural production and expression in post-war Canada, and how these contributed to a national architectural identity, particularly in the context of Canada's celebration of the 1967 centennial of Confederation.
