Project title: 
Julius Posener and Malaysian Architectural Education: Reciprocal Influence and Intellectual Legacy

Project outline: 
The study highlights the significant work and influence of Julius Posener, as one of the important figures in establishing architectural education in Malaysia. The tracing and documenting of his life and work in Malaysia from 1956 to 1961 leads to a discovery on the importance of Posener’s writings, which significantly contributed to the historical input and documentation of the establishment of Malaysian architectural education. This study aims to justify the pivotal link between his attainment in Malaysia and his consecutive achievements in his career as a prominent figure in modern architectural history and education in the 20th century.
