The International Design
Seminar (INDESEM) has a long
and fascinating history. Since
the first edition in 1964, each
INDESEM has brought students
and professionals from all over
the world together to explore relevant architectural issues
of their time – in the form of
excursions, competitions, and
lectures. While INDESEM
evolves and changes, depending
on the people involved in its
organization, each edition
exposes current ideas and needs
of the students: their views on
architecture education, what they
deem most relevant, and which
designers inspire them. In return,
INDESEM inspires educators
and helps establish new ways
of teaching in architecture.
