Author Information

Randall Ott, AIA, is an architect and educator who since 2003 has served as Dean of the School of Architecture + Planning at The Catholic University of America, in Washington DC. He has written widely on Modernism in central and northern Europe, publishing book chapters, articles, book reviews and encyclopedia entries. Particular emphases have been on the work of Mies van der Rohe, Karl Friedrich Schinkel and Germany. He has also made more than 30 scholarly presentations and lectures in those areas of study. For many years he served on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Architectural Education, reviewing articles on those topics. His interests often undertake a juxtaposition of wider cultural manifestations with architecture, such as his chairing of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture's 1997 international conference in Berlin, entitled Building as a Political Act. As an architect, for the past two decades he has been involved in theoretical studies of the design of sacral and honorific spaces. For his work with theoretical chapels, he has won three Faculty Design Awards from the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture.
