The built environment differs from place to place as long as architecture approaches do, especially in relation to the building materials and construction techniques. At the same time, the built environment acts as the main source of experiences, references, examples etc. for students and teachers, representing the basis of the “common knowl-edge” regarding local building technology. It is natural therefore that it works as a key factor, influencing the teaching of architectural technology and, more generally, of ar-chitecture. The paper examines and comments the importance of experiences from the local built environment in the studies of Architecture and more specifically in relation to the courses of Architectural Technology. It also presents the confrontation that has been se-lected by the Architectural Engineering Department of the Technical University of Crete (TUC) for the exploitation of experiences from the built environment in the courses of Architectural Technology.
