Introduction
Overview
The architecture course is a unique course like no other. Majority of the course is held outside of the traditional classroom and in the streets of the historic city of Florence through walking and sketching tours. Work by the influential figures of the fifteenth century such as Brunelleschi, Michelangelo, and Dante are studied. The city’s structure and architecture are analyzed. The course is open to anyone who is passionate about architecture, interior design, and Italian art.
Faculty
The faculty is made up of both locally Italian and international professors who all speak and teach in English. Additionally, the professors are all professionals working in their field. This is to ensure that the faculty is aware of what is happening in their field so that they do not give their students outdated information. The school’s intimate class sizes allow for each student to receive a premium individualized education.
Location
The school is located in the picturesque city of Florence. Florence is a living influence of some of the most influential architects and designers such as Brunelleschi, Da Vinci, Dante, and Michelangelo. FIDI is a unique school partially thanks to its incredible location. Classes have the opportunity to witness the historical masterpieces through walking tours with their professors and learn about art history on site.
