The alliance of Robotics and Artificial Intelligence hints at a decline in the demand for architectural services in the future. On the other hand, the need to accommodate the rapid population growth around the world will inevitably change the current methods of design and construction to smarter, faster, data-driven, automated, and sustainable processes. The radical shift that architectural practice will face in the not-so-distant future, as well as the demise in the value of post-secondary education suggests that the future of architectural pedagogy will be very different from the current model.Citing the urgency of the “unprecedented social, political and ecological challenges” many havedemanded a full curricular restructuring of the disciplines related to the built environment. While there isno doubt that the “content” of our contemporary architectural education is failing our students, our environment, and the generations to come, this paper looks at how the “forms” of design education willbe affected by rapid technological developments.
