Nele De Raedt at the Privacy Studies Journal Conference

Nele De Raedt is Assistant Professor in History, Theory and Criticism of Architecture at LOCI, UCLouvain. Her research focuses on late medieval and early modern architectural theory in a European context. She studies moral, political and legal texts as alternative media in which architectural theory is formed. She is interested in questions concerning the moral and political implications of the patronage and design of urban residential architecture.

Her PhD focused on palace-architecture in fifteenth century Italy, specially defilement, confiscation, and destruction of palaces, as well as the possible implications of such practices for contemporary architectural theory. From January 2015 to June 2016, she worked as a research fellow at the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florence in the research group on Ethics and Architecture, with Brigitte Sölch, Hana Grundler and Alessandro Nova. Since spring 2017, she is an Editorial Board member of Architectural Histories, the open access journal of the EAHN.
