Professor Leland Shaw M.Arch Teaching Area Design

I received my Bachelors of Architecture from the University of Illinois in 1961 and my Masters of Architecture form the University of California/Berkeley of 1964. That fall I joined the Faculty here at Florida as an Instructor in Architecture. I have been a visiting Professor at Louisiana State University and the University of California/Berkeley. My major architectural interests have been in the teaching of Design [at all levels of the program], Environment and Behavioral Research in the are of Children?s Play Environments, and the Design and Construction of Play Environments for Disabled Children. I am also a Ceramic Artist represented by several Art Galleries in Florida. Currently I teach Design and Environment & Behavior Research, and am a graduate Adviser. I also act as a liaison to the profession visiting architectural firms and fundraising. An ongoing activity is a manuscript preliminarily entitled; The Architecture of California Wineries; from Mission to Postmodern and Beyond.
