Rerun – 35: Francesca Torzo

This episode originally aired on 9 April 2020. It was recorded in person in a noisy hotel cafe, so the audio quality is variable (it gets better after the first few minutes). It's one of my favourite conversations. If you haven't heard it yet, enjoy!- Matthew ---Francesca Torzo is an Architect based in Italy.“In all of our projects there is always a construction experiment, but that is never the purpose. It seems that we just land there, to find a solution that is able to combine severable variables. Most of the time the most sensitive variable is silence - this naturalness where you don’t need to see all of the effort.“ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep 18: OK-RM

OK-RM are a design studio working in the fields of art, culture and commerce. “'Graphic designer' is something that comes up a lot in this conversation and it’s almost something that we’re anti. We call ourselves a design practice mainly because we really love that idea that what we do could transcend any particular medium or discipline. It’s out of real respect - not for ulterior motives - only because we believe in a universality of design” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

64: Carla Juaçaba

Carla Juacaba is a Brazilian architect based in London. “I’m compelled by theatre for its impermanence, that things end, in a way that it’s not even possible to record; it’s very fascinating to see things dissipating, then that’s it. When I worked in exhibition design I was already fascinated by how despite this temporary effect, ideas live on in our minds forever - architecture can be temporary but it remains a part of our imaginary world.” Scaffold is an Architecture Foundation production, hosted by Matthew Blunderfield. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep 20: Mill & Jones

Anna Mill and Luke Jones are authors of the graphic novel Square Eyes. “The future city still has to get designed somehow, and augmented reality is not settled - they need more ideas. In terms of speculative design as a pursuit [...] there’s a positive need for it, but to find a way of doing it that has critical integrity” Hosted on Acast.

Ep 25: Omer Arbel

Omer Arbel is an architect and industrial designer based in Vancouver.“When I talk about the receding of ego in my work, that is the method - I encourage materials to teach me, but there’s obviously an editorial moment in that process where I want a specific aesthetic extreme to emerge […] What I hope to do here in our practice is make work that has a cultural relevance to this very strange moment in time now. If we are rigorous to this time and place in human history, then we make work that is culturally relevant and has a longevity simply because of the fidelity it has to the zeitgeist.” Hosted on Acast.

Rerun - 4: Pablo Bronstein (March 2018)

[This episode originally aired on 21 March 2018]Pablo Bronstein is an artist based in London. "I’m from a generation that lives entirely within irony - so that everything is a quotation, everything is double-sided, everything is good and bad […] In order to feel that you’re simultaneously lying and telling the truth, it’s because there is a ‘you’ there somehow - there is a core at the centre that is able to perceive the difference between truth and lie. The majority of young people today have a very different relationship to themselves, and I think it has something to do with how external their lives are now, and how there is less self-formation early on in life, so you are given more options to choose from but they are just a series of options pre-fabricated for you […] I’ve always said that people under the age of 25 don’t really have a sub-conscious. There’s nothing really there, or rather, there’s a lot there but it’s the same all the way through."Correction: In this interview it is suggested that Adam Nathaniel Furman had written a response to a 2017 Dezeen article by Sean Griffiths. In fact no such response has been published. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

57: Ryan Scavnicky

Ryan Scavnicky is an educator, architectural theorist and founder of the practice Extra Office. He's also been described as "the godfather of the architecture meme." “I think of theory way more as a practice and I think of criticism way more as a practice than as this thing that floats around in books – the theory is the feed; the theory is the hive mind meme page; the theory is the tiktok account – I think those are all bonafide methods of the production of contemporary architectural theory” Hosted on Acast.
