Ines Weizman is directing the MPhil/ PhD Programme at the School of Architecture at the RCA. She is the founding director of the Centre for Documentary Architecture (CDA), an interdisciplinary research collective of architectural historians, filmmakers, and digital technologists.
Weizman was trained as an architect at the Bauhaus University Weimar and the Ecole d’Architecture de Belleville in Paris, Cambridge University, and the Architectural Association where she completed her PhD thesis in History and Theory. She taught at the Architectural Association, Goldsmiths College London, the Berlage Institute of Architecture in Rotterdam and London Metropolitan University. Before joining the RCA Weizman was professor of architectural theory at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar and director of the Bauhaus Institute for the History and Theory of Architecture and Planning.

Add Metaphysics is a publishing project at the Aalto University Digital Design Laboratory. Borrowing from a schoolbook format, it presents an experimental curriculum for designers and artists in the midst of a changing electro-cultural field of material.
In discussion with mechanical engineers and material scientists, the project builds a case for critical, inquisitive practice that converges around not only the material and the digital but also the metaphysical: molding the perception of the material world as much as materials themselves.
Out in spring 2013, the first publication in the series focuses on devising literacies for a digital materiality. It includes essays and assignments by select practitioners and researchers, such as Jane Bennett, Vera Bühlmann, and Graham Harman.

This paper presents the story of a customs house in the Golan Heights to which locals refer as ‘Bauhaus’. Beyond being a fascinating case study of early modernism in ‘migration’ this building captures the complex history of transformation in the Middle East which originates from a treaty between British and French Diplomats to draw a dividing line through the Ottoman Empire. It looks at the geopolitical consequences of that border that cut through trans-Arabian infrastructures and at the role of architecture in the colonial history of the Levant.

The International Bauhaus-Kolloquium at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar is a prestigious international conference on current topics of architectural history and theory with a special focus on the history and legacy of the Bauhaus. An online archive, specially created to mark the Bauhaus jubilee, offers a survey of the history of the International Bauhaus-Kolloquium, which has been held 14 times from 1976 to the present and which has in its own way contributed to the restoration of the Bauhaus heritage.
