Synopsis

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 one relevant architectural issue 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. This book presents archive material, publications and interviews with some of the key personalities to tell this exciting story for the first time.

Information from Rademakers, Stijn 2022. ‘Wiek heeft ons erg gestimuleerd om het op te pakken en een beetje bij het bestuur gelobbyd voor de eerste financiële toezegging, Jan Brouwer en Ben van Berkel waren alleen in naam verbonden. Herman is eigenlijk degene die ons het meest ondersteund heeft maar dat was ook een met wat frisse tegenzin omdat we vanaf het begin ook vrij duidelijk onze eigen weg wilden gaan. [...] Wij hebben veel gehad aan Laurence Jan Ten Cate en Marcel Musch. Die wisten van heel veel zaken hoe we dat handig konden aanpakken. Een echte mentor of supervisor hadden we echter niet.’
