Call for papers for issue 8(1) of Charrette

Editors of Charrette are pleased to announce the call for papers for issue 8(1) of Charrette, the journal of the Association of Architectural Educators (AAE), which will be guest edited Ann de Graft-Johnson and Renée Tobe.

This issue, under the theme of Race and Space: Changing the architectural narrative, calls for research and commentary and critical reflection on the state of play relating to the context and content of architectural education, as well as present personal narratives relating to race and space. For more details and guidelines please visit our website.

We invite architectural academics, researchers, practitioners and students, to submit contributions to one of the three categories of Charrette: Essay, Project, Freespace. Contributions should be submitted as full papers to charrette@architecturaleducators.org by Wednesday 29th September 2021. Charrette 8(1) will  be published in Spring 2022.

In line with the aims of the AAE, the journal aims to:

- Provide a shared medium for the dissemination of both academic peer-reviewed writing and research generated through the architectural design studio

- Articulate contemporary architectural pedagogies

- Demonstrate the breadth and quality of the discourse, actions and outcomes of architectural education

Charrette is also always seeking expressions of interest from potential guest editors. We welcome proposals for future issues at charrette@architecturaleducators.org.

Charrette is an open-access journal and all previous published issues can be accessed via https://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/2054-6718.
