    Local Architecture Now - with Joel Cosgrove - social geographer

    We speak with Joel Cosgrove, social geographer, core curator of Wellington’s Eyegum Music Collective, discussing their Welcome to Nowhere festival as placemaking, our urban 3rd spaces and collective public space. He suggests that much that we worked on in the past shows more example than the works of present development. Time to think back as we think forward.

    Local Architecture Now - with artist Micheline Robinson and placemaking activism and creativity in Hoylake

    French Canadian contemporary artist Micheline Robinson, resident in Kapiti Aotearoa, tells her story of placemaking activism and creativity in Hoylake town on the Wirral Peninsula, near Liverpool. In 2009, Micheline, amid renewed growth as an artist, awoke to the declining town quality of Hoylake and the many small towns in the Wirral Borough Merseyside and did something about it. As a leading figure in the focus for this regional revitalisation, Micheline’s colourful narrative sets up parallels for our current placemaking awareness here locally, nationally and internationally. https://www.michelinerobinson.co.nz/ Rosalind Derby of Rosalind Derby Architecture, interviews colleagues across the construction industry, discussing architecture and building, urban design, public space design.

    Local Architecture Now- with Afdel Aziz discusses his groundbreaking documentary 'The Genius of the Place'

    Afdel Aziz (The Conspiracy of Love) discusses his groundbreaking documentary ‘The Genius of the Place'. This is an extraordinarily beautiful film, introducing us to Geoffery Bawa and his architecture in Sri Lanka. Bawa (1919 – 2003), recognised as one of the influential architects of the twentieth century, devoted his work to a discovery of a contemporary Sri Lankan sense of place. Afdel’s interview reveals the importance of the film as a story of Bawa’s life and work within the utterly beautiful Sri Lankan geography, Bawa’s beloved place. Afdel enchanted his film with special interviews among the talented Sri Lankan architects, artists, and craftspeople with whom Bawa collaborated, to bring forward his formative expression of a de-colonised Sri Lankan architecture.
