Research news - As an artist, Professor Tina Haase has a special way of seeing architecture. In this interview, she explains how art can inspire next-generation architects on ways to give tangible form to their ideas and why it's important for buildings not to lose their individuality. What importance does art have in architecture? Tina Haase: We create art with our architects. That said, our students are not here to become contemporary artists. The point of teaching art within an architecture degree program is to develop and refine the way architects look at things and think about them, and to give them the space to develop their own visions. I believe it's extremely important to show how an artistic approach can enrich a design. In art, you can try things out, turn them upside down, look at them the wrong way up, or even explore the converse.
