Architecture’s Afterlife is the first book to examine the sectors into which architecture graduates migrate, and to identify the transferable skills that are learned, but not always taught, in their degree programmes, and that prove most useful in their new careers.
‘This book takes the opportunity and the responsibility to articulate what our discipline can contribute to the world we live in, and to redefine what the education of an architect both can and should be.’ - Eva Franch i Gilabert
‘This book evidences the pressing need to usher in a mindset shift that reimagines the role of architects.’ - Muyiwa Oki, RIBA President

She teaches both in undergraduate and in master program of Architecture in multidisciplinary Design Units and she’s currently supervising PhD dissertation. Her research is focused on three main axis: architectural education methods, parametric design and urban morphological regeneration of industrial dismantled areas. She has been engaged in many national and international research programs such as ‘Architecture-Market-Democracy. The evaluation of architectural quality as an issue: aesthetic criteria in programs for housing between market and democracy’ (2011–2013), or ‘Architecture and Places: local landscape valorisation between identity development and promotion. From “parish maps” to “territorial brands”’ (2010–2012). She actively participated in the EAAE education academy workshops since 2016 and she is currently a member of the EAAE Council.
Dag Boutsen is the dean of the KU Leuven Faculty of Architecture with campuses in Brussels and Ghent. Dag is a Belgian architect and has a lot of experience in co-creative design with projects in the Netherlands, France and Germany. His particular teamwork-experience has grown through 20 years of working with Lucien Kroll on numerous housing and school complexes developed through participatory workshops. The search for the right ‘spot’ for the discipline of architecture, as one among the numerous other university disciplines is what keeps Dag going since 2009: the societal position, the research setting as well as the educational point. As a dean of a Faculty of Architecture belonging to one of the oldest, most research-based and internationally very high ranked universities in Europe and beyond, he considers the construction of this suited spot as his main duty. Together with numerous colleagues of his Faculty, he has been involved in actions related to the EAAE or EAAE-topics, both directly and indirectly. PhD-by design, CA²Re-conferences, ADAPT-r, ARENA, non-written research output, eCAADe, experimental curricula, multi-campus education, nomadic schools, European exchange, overseas collaborations, international workshops, none of these are unfamiliar to Dag and his partners.

Dr Haydée De Loof is an educational researcher at the University of Antwerp. She obtained a PhD at the department of Training and Education Sciences at the Faculty of Social Sciences. She graduated as a psychologist from Ghent University, and the topic of motivation, interest, and behaviour in study choice and career trajectories has been a main interest ever since. She has adopted a quantitative approach in most
of her research topics. For her PhD, she focused on the effects of integrated STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) education on students’ knowledge, motivation, and further career aspirations. The research project STEM@School won the Best Research and Practice Award of EAPRIL 2017. Besides educational effectiveness studies, she has also conducted research on stimulating competences in informal out-of-the-classroom learning environments. For the Artifex project, she has been involved in the construction of a learning platform for teachers who are working in high-technological informal learning environments, such as Fablabs. Currently, an important area of research is the career trajectories and competences of professionals who have finished university education.

He pleads for a better understanding of academia and practice as distinct, but interrelated sites of knowledge production, and strives towards a more intrinsic entanglement of both. With the Interdisciplinary Studio for Territories in Transition (ISTT), he studies spatial transformations in building cultures in non-Western environments. Johan is a council member of EAAE (European Association of Architectural Education), and founding member and coordinator of the EAAE Education Academy.

Dr Harriet Harriss (RIBA, PFHEA, Ph.D., FRSA) is an award-winning educator, qualified architect, and the former Dean of the Pratt School of Architecture in Brooklyn, New York. Her teaching, research, and writing focus upon pioneering pedagogic models for design education and exploring the intersectional edge of social justice and the climate crisis theories and practices, themes that emerged from two of
her regarded texts, ‘Radical Pedagogies: Architectural Education & the British Tradition’ (2015) and ‘A Gendered Profession’ (2016). Dr. Harriss’ advocacy for diversity and inclusion within design education was
further recognized by Dezeen Magazine, who identified Dean Harriss as one of the Top Ten Champions for Women in Architecture and Design in 2019. Her 2020 publication, ‘Architects After Architecture’ won the
Annual Bates Prize for Architectural Media. Her recent and forthcoming books include, ‘Greta Magnusson Grossman. Modern Design from Sweden to California’ (Lund Humphries); ‘100 Women Architects’ (RIBA
publications); ‘Architectural Pedagogies of the Global South’ (Routledge Companion Series 2022); and ‘Working at the Intersection: The Architecture of the Post-Anthropocene’ (RIBA 2022). Combined, these
texts extrapolate upon her growing expertise in archival activism, climate crisis curriculum and diversity, equity and inclusion. Dr Harriss has argued that there can be ‘no social justice without climate justice,’ and
that, ‘the co-creation of a climate crisis curriculum is the most pressing imperative facing architectural education and practice.’

Dr Hanne Van Reusel is an architect, and a lecturer and researcher at KU Leuven and University of Antwerp. As an ‘architect.e’, advocating for architecture to focus on quality of life and wellbeing. She is
a pragmatic activist committed to urban architectural design, the commons and sustainability. As a researcher, she developed a practice-based PhD in Architecture (KU Leuven and PoliTo). She is engaged in academia which covers topics such as altering urban architectural design practices, design-based research, and a feminist and broad perspective on architecture. As a practitioner, she approaches urban design within the context of sustainable transitions and focuses on the fundamental relation between people and their spatial environment - in transition. This practice manifests through artistic spatial interventions (x.hale collective) and consultancy work (Osmos Network) through which Hanne supports
architects, urbanist and public, private and community-oriented organisations in their desired shift towards greener and more liveable urban environments. As artistic and executive director for Stad en Architectuur,
Hanne invests in architecture culture in Flanders and beyond, nourishing the debate on the importance of qualitative and innovative architecture for the public and environmental good.
