Jacques Herzog on Inspired Architecture

The Power of Culture

A series of conversations with Al-Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani and people who have been part of Qatar’s architecture & culture development journey.

In this episode, Her Excellency welcomes Swiss architect, Jacques Herzog, one of the two founders of the Herzog & de Meuron practice.

In 2001, Herzog & de Meuron were awarded the Pritzker Prize, the highest honour in architecture. The practice is designing the forthcoming Lusail Museum in Doha.

In their discussion, Herzog shared his unique approach to architecture and the inspiration he draws from local materials and the cultural context of the location.
