metadata.value: One of the most exciting periods on the history of London Architectural Association was in
  the 1960–1980s, when Alvyn Boyarsky became its director and the school turned into a true
  experimental field for the post-reconstruction generation, bringing up today’s world architecture
  leaders. The school’s graduates are the heroes of contemporary architecture, sensitive to
  the historical urban context, architectural genealogy and the complexity of human everyday
  life in general. Some of the issues raised during that period are still relevant in contemporary
  urban development. The current paper is a study of AA’s educational methods and programmes,
  with a focus on the main research topics, best diploma projects, and extracurricular
  activities. Education for Boyarski was a way to create an environment for experimentation and
  critical thinking, so he supported any student undertaking — from costumed carnivals and
  elephant riding to music records and student magazines. This was the reform carried out by
  Boyarski: he completely changed the structure of the studying process by proposing the “unit
  system” as the base model (which he himself called the “well-laid table”). The paper is devoted
  to the history of London Architectural Association of the 1960s–1980s, the urban problems
  faced by the generation that succeeded the generation of the postwar Reconstruction, and the
  methods of teaching developed during these years under the leadership of Alvin Boyarski.
