Our third and final interview from Te Kāhui Whaihanga New Zealand Institute of Architects In:Situ 2024 conference is with Jeanne Gang, founder of Studio Gang.

Studio Gang's work is extremely wide-ranging, and defies categorisation. We talked with Jeanne about some of her most meaningful projects, the new ways in which architects shape cities, technology and making, and the patient art of long projects.

We thank the NZIA for their support in organising these interviews.
