The thesis will propose a decentralized building type for the contemporary development of urban architecture schools. The largest component of architecture education left out of universities at present is the ability for collaboration amongst student and public communities on a regular basis. To achieve this level of community collaboration there needs to be a transformation on how architecture schools spatially organize their activities and programs. As a response to existing architecture school examples, this thesis will relocate four fundamental programs from the school to the city. These programs are as follows: the forum, the workshop, the auditorium, and the studio. A case study in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan will depict the four programs, their theory and design, and more importantly how the components of the school interact within the city.
