Rethinking brickwork as a contemporary technology : An advanced construction artisan campus in the inner-city of Pretoria

Mini Dissertation (MArch (Prof))--University of Pretoria, 2022.The focus of this dissertation is primarily a technological enquiry in which brickwork is reconsidered as a contemporary technology that is expressed tectonically, with consideration of local specificity. It is argued that this reconsideration positions the dissertation within the ever-expanding discourse of craft. The rich brick tradition as evident in Pretoria, will also be contextualised as it influences how the design discussed in the dissertation responds to the context.ArchitectureMArch (Prof)Unrestricte
