- The John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design (commonly referred to as Daniels Faculty) is an academic division at the University of Toronto which focuses on architecture and urban design. The Faculty was the first school in Canada to offer an architecture program (founded in 1890), and it was one of the first in Canada to offer a landscape architecture program (founded in 1965). As of July 2021, its dean is Juan Du. In 2008, the Faculty changed its name to the current one — the "John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design" — to acknowledge a sizable donation made by benefactors John and Myrna Daniels, which they have more than doubled to-date. Following their naming gift, and the appointment of new leadership in 2009, the Daniels Faculty was profoundly transformed: it has quadrupled in size and has made several advances in the quality of its academic programs, research, public programming, and societal impact. This involved creating an inventive undergraduate foundation in architectural studies, renewing the school’s three established graduate professional programs, creating a unique PhD in architecture, landscape, and design, and founding various research initiatives, including the Global Cities Institute. The Faculty’s disciplinary reach recently expanded by incorporating University of Toronto’s programs in art/visual studies, curatorial studies, and forestry. There has also been a marked expansion of the school’s full-time, tenured faculty, and a significant number of diverse new faculty have recently joined the school, that together have helped catalyze many of the school's recent initiatives. The most visible aspect of the Daniels Faculty’s recent transformation is the construction of the Daniels Building at One Spadina Crescent. The complex opened in 2017, reinvigorating a major civic landmark, greatly expanding the schools facilities and elevating the Daniels Faculty's status, both locally and internationally. The One Spadina project was led by the recently outgoing Dean Richard M. Sommer, and was designed by Nader Tehrani, with his Boston-based firm NADAAA, and the landscape architects Public Work. The Project has received 27 design and planning awards to date. (en)

Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design）是加拿大多伦多大学的一个学术学院，它提供在建筑、景观设计、城市设计、视觉研究等各领域的本科、研究生及博士后项目。这一学院被认为是加拿大顶尖的建筑和城市设计学院之一。 1890年，多伦多大学建造了加拿大第一所可以提供建筑相关专业的学院，并在1965年开设了加拿大第一个景观建筑专业项目。2008年，为了纪念建筑学院的主要赞助人约翰·丹尼尔夫妇，便改为今名。丹尼尔在2013年再次为学院投入大量资助，使得学院有资金可以计划将旧有的One Spadina大楼改造成为其所有专业项目和设施的总部。 (zh)
