Schools of architecture, art and conservation work in remarkable buildings, and most of those buildings have no public record of their own. These are the ones our archive keeps.
What this page is, and what it is not
Every institution below has a page in our archive about the building it occupies: its dates, its architect where one is known, what happened in it, and the sources we used. We wrote those pages because the buildings are worth recording, not because the institutions asked us to.
A name here does not mean the institution has joined the programme. It means we document its seat. Institutions that have joined CHO Academic are listed on the partner institutions page, and they appear there only after they confirm.
If you work at one of these institutions: tell us what is wrong on your page and we will correct it the same day. Send us a photograph and we will put it on the page, as the opening image or in a gallery below the text, credited as you ask. Both are free, and neither obliges you to anything.
University of Cambridge, Department of Architecture · Cambridge
Its 1959 extension was opened by Le Corbusier and Henry Moore.
If your institution is not here
The archive holds just under seventeen thousand places, and this page lists only the seats we have written up so far. If your school works in a building with a history, tell us and we will look at it. We document what is worth documenting, whether or not anything follows from it.
