Biography
Thorvald Christian Norberg-Schulz was born in
Fulbright scholarship. Between 1963 and 1978 he edited Byggekunst, an official magazine of National Association of Norwegian Architects.[3] He received his Doctor of Technology in architecture from the Norwegian Institute of Technology in 1964 and became a professor at Yale University, the following year. Norberg-Schulz was a professor and later Dean at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design from 1966 to 1992. During 1974, he was a visiting professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Architecture Department.[4][5]
In the 1950s and 1960s, Norberg-Schulz practiced as an architect both alone and in collaboration with
architectural history (in particular Italian classical architecture, especially the Baroque) and for his writings on theory.[10][11]
Personal life
In 1955, he married Anna Maria de Dominicis. They had three children; two sons Erik (1955) Christian Emanuel (1967) and one daughter Elizabeth (1959).
