About London Met Cass :
And yet in sharp contrast to the university’s blundering and chaotic public image, its architecture courses are increasingly highly regarded and attract − particularly at postgraduate level − very strong students. It has become the school of choice for many of the brightest design graduates from Cambridge (which no longer has a diploma) and other top British schools.
What attracts them? Largely it is the quality of the studio faculty. Operating under the unit system (popularised by Alvin Boyarsky’s AA in the 1970s-80s, of which the Dean of London Met is himself a product), here the units are much more identified with a ‘practice’ than an ‘individual’ − reflecting perhaps a larger shift over that time from the architect as avant-garde genius to pragmatic collaborator (an essay in itself).
