The International Laboratory of Architecture and Urban Design (ILAUD) was an influential platform for rethinking urban discourse and pedagogy in the 1970s and '80s. Founded by Giancarlo De Carlo with Team X members, it brought together architects, teachers, and students from Europe and North America to explore user participation, building reuse, and eclecticism. Though its theoretical discussions shaped architectural education and practice, ILAUD's impact remains understudied. Contributors examine the laboratory's early years through conceptual, methodological, and geographical perspectives.
