In our last episode of 2024 we thought we would do something a little bit different, and talk about where we think architectural culture is at right now, an archaeology of the present, a dissection of the Now. We took some suggestions and requests from our Patrons, and followed them from recent discoveries at the National Gallery to Kengo Kuma and the Las Vegas Sphere. Some of the stories we talked about: National Gallery: https://www.theartnewspaper.com/2024/08/27/sainsbury-wing-contractors-find-1990-letter-from-donor-anticipating-their-demolition-of-false-columns Architectural unionisation: https://jacobin.com/2024/10/bernheimer-architecture-union-faect-cio Matt's essay about AI: https://recessed.space/00186-AI-neural-networks-architecture-AI Thank you to everyone for watching, listening, reviewing, subscribing and supporting us on Patreon this year!

In an episode last summer, I covered my first autobiography about the story and works of Yoshihiro Takishita. Looking back at my catalog of podcasts, I found this to be one of the most insightful and enjoyable to listen to.For a few months now, I've been dwelling in the realm of ideas — about beauty, tradition, modernism — and have been itching to bring them down to a more practical, human level. There's no better place to start than to re-explore the genre of biography. The practitioners of architecture will no doubt have much to offer as I work on my Japanese farmhouse restoration.Today, Kengo Kuma will give us a tour of his finished works throughout Tokyo, which range from epic sports venues to regal museums to quaint confectionary shops. As arguably the greatest wood architect of his generation, he advocates for an architecture that respects and takes into account its surroundings — as opposed to obtrusive buildings that selfishly obscure their neighbors.Since my project is mostly a historic building restoration, the house should take its humble place within the neighborhood without much difficulty. However, I think Kuma can still offer inspiration in another area. Collapsed roofs and rotten columns will need full replacement, and there will be plenty of room to use new wood material in a creative (Kuma-influenced) way to bridge the old and the new.Local Japan Podcast is a reader-supported publication.

Per un paio d'anni rinunciamo a qualsiasi ragionamento su complessi e articolati programmi di rigenerazione urbana.Sospendiamo per un tempo definito la realizzazione di fantasmagoriche opere pubbliche.Concentriamoci su un solo intervento: la costruzione di nuovi bagni pubblici nel territorio del Comune.Come ha fato la città di Tokyo con il programma Tokyo Toilet, partito nel 2018 e completato nel 2023 grazie all'iniziativa di The Nippon Foundation, un'organizzazione non lucrativa che promuove e sostiene progetti di welfare.Un intervento che ha consentito di realizzare, nel quartiere di Shibuya, 17 nuovi bagni pubblici coinvolgendo progettista come Kengo Kuma, Tadao Ando, Shigeru Ban, Toyo Ito, Fumihiko Maki, Masamichi Katayama e altri.Leggi l'articolo qui > https://www.listonegiordano.com/one/architettura/wim-wenders-bagni-pubblici-perfect-days-architettura/
Kengo Kuma has a philosophy: to enrich the connection between buildings and nature, “almost tuning-in” to the materials. His architecture is inspired by traditional Japanese design, and he is a serious critic of the global dominance of concrete. Kuma's mission has manifested in iconic buildings including China's Folk Art Museum, the V&A in Scotland, and Japan's National Stadium, built for the 2020 Olympics. Broadcaster Nick Luscombe follows Kuma to Japan's oldest and largest lake, and to the ancient capital of Otsu, where Kuma is attempting to represent the history of the area not by constructing a new building, but by creating a monument to a legendary cow.

In this episode, we sit down with Nancy Ji, an architectural design lecturer, and Ph.D. researcher specializing in community design and vacant house renovation. Originally from China, Nancy moved to New Zealand with her family as a child and pursued her Bachelor of Architecture degree at the University of Auckland, including a year studying at the University of California, Berkeley. Continuing her academic journey, Nancy completed a Master of Architecture at the University of Melbourne, including a semester at TU Delft in the Netherlands. Along the way, she had the opportunity to intern at renowned architectural firms in Japan, including Atelier Bow Wow and Kengo Kuma and Associates. After working at Bates Smart Architects in Melbourne, primarily focusing on multi-residential and commercial projects, Nancy embarked on her doctoral studies at Keio University in Tokyo in 2019.During our conversation, we dive deep into Nancy's research and explore the post-disaster revitalization projects she encountered in Tohoku. We discuss the transformation of vacant houses into vibrant community spaces, including the establishment of guesthouses, cafes, and ateliers that foster a sense of community.

Before Richard founded the sake brewery in 2018, he was the Chef de Cave, or cellar master, at the world-famous Champagne producer Dom Pérignon for 28 years. Richard makes traditional-style Japanese sake that is uniquely merged with Champagne-making techniques and his sake is gaining the attention of professionals and connoisseurs of sake and wine worldwide.

À l'occasion de la réouverture du Musée départemental Albert Kahn à Boulogne-Billancourt, en région parisienne, on part sur la planète, haute en couleurs et en images, de ce banquier philanthrope iconoclaste et visionnaire du XIXè siècle. (Rediffusion du 10 avril 2022) Le voyage c'est « garder les yeux grands ouverts », disait celui qui, en 1898, une fois sa banque fondée, va créer sa première entreprise philanthropique : les bourses « Autour du monde ». Ces bourses de voyage de 15 mois, financés par Kahn, étaient alors destinées à des agrégés français, hommes d'abord, femmes et étrangers ensuite, dans l'idée de modifier le regard des élites, de les décentrer et les ouvrir au monde par l'expérience et l'immersion. Né en 1860 dans une famille juive alsacienne, Albert Kahn va orchestrer ensuite, au début du XXè siècle, une entreprise de collecte et d'inventaire de la beauté et de la réalité du monde, unique son genre : les Archives de la Planète. 72 000 autochromes,180 000 mètres de pellicules cinéma et 4 000 plaques stéréoscopiques noir et blanc vont être ramenés par une douzaine d'opérateurs, véritables aventuriers de l'image envoyés dans plus d'une cinquantaine de pays. Un siècle plus tard, ces images sont saisissantes par leur couleur et l'intimité qu'elles dégagent encore, l'autochrome étant le premier procédé photographique en couleur naturelle inventé en 1903 par les Frères Lumière. Les films, en noir et blanc, obtenus eux à l'aide du Cinématographe créé aussi par les Frères Lumière en 1895, offrent de fascinantes fenêtres sur l'état du monde au début du XXè siècle, entre progrès techniques, Première guerre mondiale et temps coloniaux. Aujourd'hui, dans le Musée départemental Albert Kahn qui a rouvert ses portes en avril 2022, ces images se dévoilent dans une nouvelle muséographie et des espaces entièrement repensés par l'architecte japonais Kengo Kuma, situés sur l'ancien domaine de 4 hectares du banquier. À l'époque de Kahn, les lieux, aux allures de campus, servaient de base arrière à son projet philanthropique tourné vers un idéal de paix et de progrès, de fondations en bourses de voyage, d'imprimerie en laboratoire de biologie ou de développement de films. Aujourd'hui, ces lieux servent d'écrin à de nouveaux espaces permanents et temporaires d'exposition, qui offrent une plongée inédite dans l'œuvre et la trajectoire hors-norme de cet homme. Un homme insaisissable en quête de lumières et d'harmonie qui finira ruiné par la crise de 1930, et qui aura finalement passé toute sa fortune et son temps à défendre une meilleure connaissance du monde et des peuples, afin de garantir la paix et l'entente, sa grande œuvre, son idéal envers et contre tout. Un reportage de Céline Develay-Mazurelle.

Voyage en terre de contes, au Danemark, sur les traces du plus célèbre des Danois: Hans Christian Andersen. Un écrivain mondialement célèbre pour ses contes mais dont le destin, hors norme, demeure peu connu. Rarement, un auteur aura autant puisé dans sa singulière existence matière à imaginer et écrire des histoires fantastiques, à la beauté tragique et étrange, mettant en scène de fragiles princesses au petit pois, un roi tout nu, une sirène opiniâtre ou des fleurs qui vont au bal pendant que les enfants sont au lit. Né en 1805 à Odense sur l'île de Fionie, dans une famille aimante mais très pauvre, l'auteur de la Reine des Neiges, la Petite Fille aux Allumettes ou le Vilain Petit Canard a très tôt trouvé refuge dans l'imaginaire et la fantaisie, nourrissant le rêve de jouer, plus grand, sur une scène de théâtre. Parti seul à Copenhague dès l'âge de 14 ans, Andersen a dû lutter contre le froid, la faim et bon nombre de préjugés pour devenir l'immense écrivain reconnu dans le monde entier, qu'il a été de son vivant et qu'il est encore aujourd'hui. Près de 150 ans après sa mort, dans les rues de Copenhague, la figure d'Andersen est partout présente: dans le nom des rues, les vitrines de souvenirs mais aussi dans le statuaire de la ville, où il apparaît souvent tel un magicien du XIXe siècle, avec sa longue cape de voyage et son chapeau haut de forme. À Odense, sa ville natale, un tout nouveau musée Andersen immersif et ambitieux, a ouvert ses portes en juin 2021. Imaginé par le studio d'architecture du japonais Kengo Kuma, les lieux invitent le visiteur à plonger dans un univers enchanté et inquiétant, truffé de fleurs métalliques, de silhouettes découpées au ciseau qui s'animent et d'objets qui parlent. Ici, on est très loin de l'univers Disney qui a adapté certains des récits les plus célèbres d'Andersen. La visite est poétique, teintée de la douce ironie dont Andersen avait le génie dans ses écrits, et ramène à des territoires de l'enfance insoupçonnés sinon oubliés. Maître incontestable du papier découpé, Andersen a laissé derrière lui plus de cent soixante contes ainsi que six romans, une trentaine de pièces de théâtre, une impressionnante correspondance, trois recueils de poésie, quatre mille cinq cents pages de journaux intimes et sept récits de voyages. « Voyager, c'est vivre » disait-il. Et Andersen passera en effet sa vie, en nomade solitaire et farfelu, sans enfants ni famille, sur les routes du vaste monde, à la table des rois, des reines et des plus grands artistes de son temps. Auteur de trois autobiographies, il a tenu à faire de sa vie un conte. Et c'est ce conte là que l'on vous raconte ici, entre Odense et Copenhague, entre hier et aujourd'hui, entre fiction et réalité, entre magie du conte et mélancolie de la vie. Un voyage sonore de Céline Develay-Mazurelle et Laure Allary, réalisé en collaboration avec le Labo RFI et Xavier Gibert. Émission initialement diffusée le 25 décembre 2021. Pour préparer votre voyage sur les pas d'Andersen : Le site de Visitdenmark regorge d'informations en français sur Andersen et les différents sites reliés au grand homme. À travers tout le Danemark, et particulièrement dans la jolie ville de Odense mais aussi l'élégante capitale Copenhague Le musée ou HC Andersens Hus situé dans la ville d'Odense est un lieu incontournable qui mérite le voyage (1h30 en train seulement depuis Copenhague). Ouvert en juin 2021, sa scénographie est hypermoderne et son architecture impressionnante. Ce musée est adossé à la maison de naissance d'Andersen. Non loin, on peut également visiter la petite maison où Andersen a grandi. Pour voyager en contes et en lettres : Oeuvres. Tome I & II. Hans Christian Andersen. Collection La Pléiade.

Niché dans un écrin de verdure, à Boulogne-Billancourt (Hauts-de-Seine), le Musée départemental Albert-Kahn, récemment restauré, passe presque inaperçu depuis la rue. Mais, derrière la porte, c'est un univers artistique et végétal qui a été imaginé par l'architecte japonais Kengo Kuma. Huit pavillons, entourés de jardins, abritent des œuvres photographiques. L'intérieur et l'extérieur sont intimement liés et désorientent le visiteur. Ce choix était-il judicieux pour un musée ?

Three Japanese were named in Time magazine's list of the 100 most influential people of 2021. For one of them, it was her third time on the annual list. The Time 100 was revealed on Sept. 15. Time separated its list of 100 people into categories: icons, pioneers, titans, artists, leaders and innovators. Tennis star Naomi Osaka appeared on the list for the third straight year, her second time as an icon. She was praised for sharing her struggles with mental health. Shohei Ohtani was also listed as an icon on the list. “His skill on the mound, coupled with his dominance at the plate, is unparalleled throughout the major leagues,” read the blurb for the Los Angeles Angels two-way player. The third Japanese on the list was architect Kengo Kuma. He designed the new National Stadium in Tokyo, the center of the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Meet the global designers and architects changing the cities that surround us. First up, British Nigerian designer Yinka Ilori explains how turning a city crossing into a colourful work of art sparks joy and brings people together during difficult times. Mexican architect Luciana Renner talks about why she always works with local communities to design public spaces, and how involving marginalised people can make our cities more inclusive. The Tersane, a historic shipyard in Istanbul's Golden Horn district, is being transformed into a cultural quarter. Architect Murat Tabanlioglu is aiming to preserve the area's unique history and heritage while creating new spaces. Finally, Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, who designed the Tokyo Olympic stadium, explains why he thinks about buildings and cities from a cat's perspective. Presenter: Chi Chi Izundu Producer: Olivia Skinner (Photo: Yinka Ilori)
O tempo passou, a gente nem percebeu e aqui estamos para preencher uma lacuna importantíssima na arquitetura. Sair do contexto ocidental faz bem de vez em quando, ajuda a gente a ver coisas diferentes, e a entender o porquê dos japoneses fazerem projetos e construções que são tão únicas e altamente reconhecíveis. A arquitetura tradicional japonesa do jeito que a gente entende nem é tão antiga assim, quase a idade do Brasil – pasmem, e influencia diretamente como esses novos edifícios contemporâneos se referem ao passado e conseguem se manter firmes no presente! É lindo demais, desculpa aí japoneses por termos deixado passar batido esse tempo todo. A gente ama vocês, e vai se falando! • Arquitetura de Boteco por Helena Tourinho e Vinícius Lopacinski • Yusuhura Wooden Bridge Museum de Kengo Kuma e nossa marca.
In 2019, as part of the artistic programme commemorating Geoffrey Bawa's 100th birthday, Lunuganga hosted a series of installations by artists and makers from Sri Lanka and abroad, in a series where the garden was explored as a site of hospitality and a place of encounter. Each artist responded to Bawa's practice and his garden through a unique, site-specific work developed over an almost two-year period. Launched in January 2020 on the cusp of a global pandemic, the works endured a time of unprecedented uncertainty, and offered pause for reflection on the meanings of generosity and intimacy. Marking the closing of The Gift, the five artists, Kengo Kuma, Lee Mingwei, Chandragupta Thenuwara, Dayanita Singh and Dominic Sansoni will speak with Suhanya Raffel, (Executive Director at M+ Museum in Hong Kong and trustee, Geoffrey Bawa and Lunuganga Trust) about their experiences and processes making and engaging with work in this last year.
简介: 奥运如火如荼引得全球关注,它的场馆设计也同样带来过巨大波澜。 2020东京奥运会主场馆的设计,原本是由Zaha Hadid事务所获得第一名,但却获得了许多反对的声音,其中一条就是“尺度过大、与周边环境不协调”。尽管Zaha调整方案,但还是失去设计资格。日本政府再次举办设计竞赛,最后由Kengo Kuma事务所中标。一个体育场馆是否要与城市协调?如何去和城市协调?怎么样算是协调?节目最后也没谈清,但是聊到了许多有意思的纪录片和延伸阅读文章,贴在下方相关链接中。 此外我们也引出了另一个话题:奥运之后,这些巨型场馆该如何利用? 这个我们决定再聊一期,敬请期待。 人物: 雨晨:那个不具名的建筑师 璟璐 相关链接: 东京奥运主场馆Zaha经预算缩减调整后的4分钟方案视频简介,内网链接 (https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1yA411A7GM) 方案23分钟完整陈述,YouTube 链接 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWQGwz3vdb4) 伊东丰雄、菊竹清训、丹下健三等日本建筑师的师承关系 (https://www.zhihu.com/question/23404693/answer/102674486) 1964年东京奥运会主场馆-代代木体育馆,澎湃文章《从1964东京奥运会看日本建筑与设计:混凝土中的重生》介绍了体育馆设计的时代背景 (https://www.thepaper.cn/newsDetail_forward_8560345) 西泽立卫的电影《Tokyo Ride》 (https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1Ha4y1p7Zb/) Steven Holl 设计了 The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art 的扩建部分 (https://www.archdaily.com/4369/the-nelson-atkins-museum-of-art-steven-holl-architects),该美术馆位于美国Kansas City,收藏了山西洪洞广胜下寺原正殿西壁《炽盛光经变图》 Zaha未建成的十大项目,第二个项目就是雨晨提到的卡迪夫歌剧院方案 (https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/27416995) Herzog & de Meuron 设计的新波尔多体育场 (https://www.archdaily.cn/cn/767725/xin-bo-er-duo-ti-yu-chang-herzog-and-de-meuron) 弗雷·奥托(Frei Otto,1925~2015)最早将张拉膜作为结构形式应用于建筑中,创造出自由多变,轻盈飘逸的建筑造型 (https://www.archdaily.com/511689/happy-birthday-frei-otto) PTFE膜材料,不透明,通常以索网张拉结构应用于建筑中,拉伸强度达到钢材水平,易于形成复杂的曲面造型,案例有:慕尼黑奥运会主场馆; ETFE膜材料,透明,通常以气垫的形式应用于建筑中,气垫的经济跨度一般在3~5 m,案例有:水立方、慕尼黑安联体育馆 “Beijing Preservation” - OMA建筑事务所2003年所做的关于北京历史保护的研究课题 (https://www.oma.com/projects/beijing-preservation) 延伸阅读:哥伦比亚大学建筑系出的Koolhaas写的小书《Preservation is Overtaking Us》 (https://www.arch.columbia.edu/books/reader/6-preservation-is-overtaking-us) 纪录片《建筑师与老城》 (https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1hs411Q7c9/),所记录的是1999-2003年葡萄牙建筑师Alvaro Siza被邀请来指导西非佛得角圣地亚哥岛上的古镇Cidade Velha的建筑修复这期间的故事 由扎哈·哈迪德(Zaha Hadid)为2012年伦敦奥运会设计的伦敦水上运动中心 (https://www.gooood.cn/london-aquatics-centre-zaha-hadid.htm),其17500个座位中的15,000个都是临时座位,在奥运后和残奥会后,将只保留2500个永久座位,减少运维成本 纽约宾州车站(Penn Station)加建部分2021年投入使用 (https://www.sohu.com/a/441819567_653291) 收听方式: 推荐在泛用性播客客户端中搜索「所建所闻」订阅之后收听。 苹果手机推荐使用Podcasts、Overcast、Castro 安卓手机推荐使用AntennaPod、Pocket Casts、Castbox 此外还可以在「小宇宙」及Spotify上收听。 联系方式: 网站:architalk.xyz 邮箱:hi@architalk.xyz 新浪微博:所建所闻 (https://m.weibo.cn/profile/6895347942) Twitter:ArchiTalkXYZ (https://twitter.com/ArchiTalkXYZ) Instagram:architalk.xyz (https://www.instagram.com/architalk.xyz/)
The wait is finally over for the Tokyo Olympics, 2020. Ken Nishikawa and Nick Luscombe take inspiration and hope from the Tokyo Olympics of 1964, which kick-started a new internationalism in Japan as the first Olympic games to be held in Asia. Together they meet the designer of the new grand stadium Kengo Kuma and many more Tokyo residents whose lives were touched by the games in 1964 to contrast the Tokyo of the past with the city and its people today.
"La sirenita", "Pulgarcita", "La reina de las nieves": los cuentos de hadas del escritor H.C. Andersen son mundialmente conocidos. En Odense, su ciudad natal, han inaugurado un nuevo museo que le rinde homenaje.
Denmark has unveiled a new museum in honor of the writer Hans Christian Andersen. Among his most famous fairytales are ‘The Emperor's New Clothes', and ‘The Little Mermaid.'
H.C. Andersens Hus åbner - I dag slår Odense dørene op for det nye store oplevelsescenter, der skal trække turister fra nær og fjern til digterens fødeby. 12 internationale kunstnere, et haveareal på cirka 7500 kvadratmeter og et underjordisk museum, der er designet af den japanske stjernearkitekt Kengo Kuma er blandt de eventyrlige ingredienser i det nye center. Vi har skridtet centeret af og prøver at finde ud af, hvad en moderne fremkaldelse af H.C. Andersen betyder. Kinesiske rappere hylder Kina - Med et over 15 minutter langt rap-nummer hylder 100 kinesiske rappere det kommunistiske styre - og er på den måde med til at skabe fest om kommunistpartiets 100 års fødselsdag i morgen. Der er sået tvivl om ægtheden af nummeret, og der er foreløbig mindst en rapper, der har været ude og undsige nummeret - det har han selvfølgelig trukket tilbage igen. Vi lytter nummeret med en, der faktisk forstår, hvad de rapper om. Jazzcamp - Det er sommer, det er piger, det er jazz. 130 piger mellem 10 og 14 år er i disse dage samlet i en jazzcamp i København. Her skal de lære om rytmisk musik, om at improvisere på instrumenterne og om at spille sammen. I sidste ende vil det - måske - være med til at få flere kvinder ind på de rytmiske instrumenter. Vi besøger campen og pigerne. Værter: Karen Secher og Tore Leifer.
Archipirla è la serie che racconta le fesserie degli architetti ed oggi vi racconto le vicende assurde del nuovo stadio olimpico che lega due archistar come Zaha Hadid e Kengo Kuma
Featuring exclusive interviews with the internationally renowned architects: Kengo Kuma; Alberto Campo Baeza; Špela Videcnik (OFIS); Fernanda Canales; Jonathan Sergison (Sergison Bates); and Jane Hall (Assemble) Entering Architectural Practice (Routledge, 2020) is a practical and honest guide for architecture students, entering the world of architectural practice. There is often a disconnection between what you are taught in architecture school and the actual practice of architecture in the workplace. As both a practicing architect and architecture school tutor, the author has first-hand experience of this disconnection and so helps students bridge this divide between academia and practice. Focused on providing industry insight, dispelling myths, and above all providing a combination of reality and hope to students of architecture entering the workplace, the book is beautifully and richly illustrated, providing a compelling visual story alongside the invaluable information it imparts. Serious but enjoyable, thoroughly researched but highly approachable, this book is simply essential reading for every individual about to embark on a career in practice. Bryan Toepfer, AIA, NCARB, CAPM is the Principal Architect for TOEPFER Architecture, PLLC, an Architecture firm specializing in Residential Architecture and Virtual Reality. He has authored two books, “Contractors CANNOT Build Your House,” and “Six Months Now, ARCHITECT for Life.” He is an Adjunct Professor at Alfred State College and the Director of Education for the AIA Rochester Board of Directors.

El día de hoy, hablaremos de dos arquitectos muy conocidos, arquitectos Japoneses que bien tienen las mismas raíces y posiblemente los mismos enfoques a lo natural pero a la hora de proyectar son totalmente diferentes, hablamos de Toyo Ito y Kengo Kuma.
Henrik Lübker blev i 2020 udnævnt som kreativ direktør og kurator for H.C. Andersens Hus i Odense. Inden havde han arbejdet som kurator for Odense Bys Museer siden 2011. Lübker har især været medskaber af en række udstillinger og installationer, der kredser om by, arkitektur og H.C. Andersens eventyr.Sommeren 2021 åbner det nye H.C. Andersens Hus i Odense. Et nyopført museum, der gentænker formidlingen af Andersens liv og værk. Museet har som mål at kunne tilbyde en enestående kunstnerisk totaloplevelse af landskab, arkitektur og moderne udstillingsdesign, der præsenterer nye perspektiver på en af verdenshistoriens mest folkekære og kreative tænkere.Det ambitiøse museumsbyggeri er tegnet af den japanske stjernearkitekt Kengo Kuma og er realiseret med en afgørende donation fra A.P. Møller Fonden.I denne udgave af ”KulturHave”, taler Christian Have blandt andet med Henrik Lübker om H.C. Andersens relevans for os i dag. Lübker gør opmærksom på, at det Andersenske univers stadig har mange uudforskede facetter. Facetter, som det nye museum vil give en indsigt i og udfordre, og dermed give os en ny opfattelse af en ellers velkendt forfatter.
Through his unique voice both in architecture and in critical theory, Kengo Kuma has brought the continuity of Japanese heritage and its craftsmanship to 21st century architecture. His new book My Life as an Architect in Tokyo is a poetic tribute to the city he loves.
In Material Transfers: Metaphor, Craft, and Place in Contemporary Architecture (Monacelli Press, 2020), architect, architectural historian, and preservationist Françoise Bollack presents eighteen projects that use traditional materials to build contemporary forms or use modern materials to build traditional forms, blurring the boundary between tradition and modernity in architecture. Bollack rejects the modernist taboo against imitation and precedent, tracing the history of adaptive and imitative design from the Renaissance to the Greek and Gothic revivals and to the nineteenth-century modular cast-iron facades that Philip Johnson considered "the basis for modern design." The book examines projects in the US, Europe, and Japan, encompassing a broad range of building types: residential, hospitality, commercial and retail, and cultural spaces. All share an intriguing, even radical, approach to reinterpreting traditional forms and materials. Humble thatch moves beyond the farmhouse roof to clad the walls of a Danish environmental center; a photographic image of a Parisian facade becomes a scrim on the facade of a new building; the ghost of an ancient Italian basilica is outlined in wire mesh. Among the featured architects are Kengo Kuma, architect of the Tokyo 2021 Olympic stadium; MVRDV, a highly regarded Dutch firm; Lacaton & Vassal and Chartier/Corbasson in France; Skene Catling de la Peña in the UK; Morris Adjmi in the USA; Max Dudler in Germany; Dortre Mandrup in Denmark; and Herzog & de Meuron in Switzerland.

Né en 1954 à Kanagawa, Kengo Kuma fonde en 1987 le studio Special Design, puis en 1990 son agence d'architecture Kengo Kuma & Associates. Son ambition est de réinterpréter au xxie siècle tradition japonaise, tout en accordant une place primordiale à la nature dans ses oeuvres. En 1997, il gagne le prestigieux prix de l'Institut architectural du Japon. Il réalise notamment en France la Cité des Arts et de la Culture de Besançon, le FRAC de Marseille et le Conservatoire de musique et de danse d'Aix-en-Provence. En 2016, il est lauréat du Global Award for Sustainable Architecture. Invité la même année au Pavillon de l'Arsenal Kengo Kuma présente son approche de l'architecture naturelle.
"Que représentent exactement les gares que nous empruntons quotidiennement pour faire le va-et-vient entre logement et lieu de travail, ou, plus périodiquement, pour basculer de l'ici de la vie de tous les jours vers l'ailleurs de destinations lointaines ? Quels sont ces lieux où la foule se condense pour passer d'un monde à l'autre. Ces entre-deux propices à des échanges inattendus, des attouchements involontaires, des bousculades intempestives où s'esquisse une communauté plus aveugle et plus charnelle que celle entrevue dans le stade. Doit-on les assimiler à des cathédrales ? Comme la canopée de verre pensée par Patrick Berger qui permet aux voyageurs des plus lointaines communes de l'agglomération parisienne de rejoindre la capitale. À des vols d'oiseaux ? Comme les tours de force structurels de Calatrava à Liège et à New York. À des tours de Babel inversées ? Comme le projet de Kengo Kuma pour la station Saint-Denis Pleyel du Grand Paris Express... Mais nous nous pencherons aussi sur les aéroports. Ces espaces où tout semble conçu pour que le public puisse se sentir à l'aise, se relaxer, se déstresser, se dénuer de toute agressivité. Comme s'il s'agissait de rejoindre, pendant quelques minutes, une communauté édénique où tous les conflits sont dénoués, où tous les désirs sont comblés." Richard Scoffier, architecte, philosophe, professeur des Écoles Nationales Supérieures d'architecture. « Portes » est le deuxième acte de l'Université Populaire qui s'est tenue en 2018 au Pavillon de l'Arsenal et à l'occasion de laquelle Richard Scoffier propose à travers un cycle intitulé « Community reloaded » d'analyser les grands bâtiments qui se présentent comme des « accumulateurs » et réaniment le sentiment de communion.

Interview of Erieta Attali with Vassilios Bartzokas, the founder of ARCHISEARCH.gr & the Design Ambassador. Erieta is one of the greatest architectural photography artists of our time. Erieta Attali (Tel Aviv) is a Landscape & Architectural photographer with photographic work expanding from Eurasia to Australia and the Americas. Attali has devoted over two decades to exploring the relationship between architecture and the landscape at the edges of the world. Her photography interrogates how extreme conditions and demanding terrains provoke humankind to reorient and center itself through architectural responses. After studying Photography at Goldsmiths, University of London, she continued as a research fellow at the School of Architecture, Columbia University in NYC with the support of Fulbright Foundation and Waseda University in Tokyo with the support of Japan Foundation. She completed her PhD at the School of Architecture and Design, RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia.

Tune in to Episode 21 of the PA Talks series with Kengo Kuma, a Japanese architect, founder of Kengo Kuma and Associates, and professor in the Department of Architecture at the University of Tokyo. After graduating in Architecture from the University of Tokyo in 1979, he worked for a time at Nihon Sekkei & Toda Corporation and then shifted to New York to enroll at Columbia University as a visiting researcher from 1985 to 1986. In 1990, he established his own firm, Kengo Kuma & Associates. His approach has been recognized for reviving and revitalizing the traditional Japanese values and customs by blending them well with the modernistic approach of the current times. Kuma's projects combine materials and their emotional connectivity with Japanese traditions. His projects include The Exchange, Odunpazarı Museum, Sunny Hills, Japan National Stadium, Suntory Museum for Art, and many more. He has also taught at Columbia University, the University of Illinois, and Keio University, where in 2008, he was awarded a Ph.D. in architecture. Tune in to this exciting and insightful episode of the PA Talks where Kengo discusses his architecture career, design methodologies, their recent projects and his visions for the future.

Erieta Attali was born in Tel Aviv and has a PhD in photography. She currently resides between New York and Paris, photographing the work of contemporary architects from around the world.She has been teaching in some of the world's leading universities, including Columbia University in NYC, the Technical University of Munich (TUM), The University of Tokyo amongst others and she began her career in the ‘90s as a leading expert in archaeological photography using UV and IR radiation technology. About 20 years ago she came across the work of the Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, and since then she has focused on architectural photography. She crafts images with a unique style, working with film and a Linhof camera, that means big format, with a panora-mic 6x12 cm back. One of the basic ingredients of Erieta Attali's photographs is natural light. She is prepared to wait for hours and even days for just the right light. And her choice of analogue photography takes her into a domain that we could define as slow photography. An insightful and comprehensive ap-proach that is far from the frenetic pace that dominates our overloaded consumption of images, flattened out into rapid sequences on digital media. It is not by chance that looking at Erieta's wonderful images one can feel the presence of time. In our talk she anticipates her new research on cities and the interaction with people that started actually in Paris during the lockdown and gives new perspectives on urban space. She also tells us also about her upcoming exhibition projects with new concepts as well as her upcoming aca-demic activities.
In this episode of Nonnative Creative, Tokyo-based photographer Irwin Wong shares about how he got his start behind the camera, the interests that brought him to Japan, and his upcoming photobook Handmade in Japan. Irwin was born in Hong Kong and raised in Australia. He came to Japan on the JET program (Japan Exchange and Teaching program) and built his photography skills in his free time. This has led to a portfolio that includes world-famous faces like Yusaku Maezawa, Marie Kondo, Hikakin, Kengo Kuma, and Carlos Ghosn (to name just a few). His photobook Handmade in Japan features beautiful photographs and interviews with artisans from all across Japan that are engaged in traditional craft work. In this talk, Irwin gave straightforward advice about professionalism and consistency in your work, as well as how to make sure your projects are visible.

Kengo Kuma sits down to discuss what influenced him to pursue a career in architecture, his unique approach to design, and how he founded Kengo Kuma & Associates. Originally aired August 2019
The beauty of Japanese design has won fans around the world but it takes great panache to translate it to large-scale projects. We sit down with architect Kengo Kuma in his Tokyo office to talk about the recently completed Japan National Stadium. It’s a building that has given a new lease of life to traditional craftsmanship and stimulated local economies.

Do you like sneakers? Then this episode is for you. From importing random Japanese zines to working in Hanon in Aberdeen and having over 250 pairs sitting in his garage. Me and Neil chat a lot about trainers in this episode. Even though his journey isn’t really about footwear. He came to Dundee to set up Borders books store. Which he helped build into the most successful branch in the UK but despite this, the company went into administration. Neil had to go through that process and watch the community he had built disappear. He seems to have a knack of getting his foot in the door by offering to lend a hand. This saw him working on some of the early-stage public consultations for V&A Dundee, then on to several Business Improvement District projects. In the episode, he also reveals that Kengo Kuma’s design was not actually the public’s first choice! The Bluebell design was the preferred choice but it was deemed too similar to Belfast’s Titanic Museum. After his work with the V&A Dundee, the Archie foundation approached Neil to help create a fundraising trail. This became the Oor Wullie Bucket Trail that was so successful at getting people out and exploring as well as raising a lot of money for charity. Neil also went on to work on the Maggie’s Penguin Parade and bucket trail number 2. Working with Wild in Art he’s now working on trails projects worldwide. But how long can this model really last? We chat about the possibilities and certain restricting factors for the future. We finish by talking about a mutual love of trainers. It may be a little self-indulgent but you’ve got to take the chance when it’s there!

В этом выпуске говорим с Вероникой Иконниковой. Основные темы: Особенности рынка недвижимости Японии (где живут люди, как все устроено, что строят девелоперы, насколько высока стоимость недвижимости, что преобладает покупка или долгосрочная аренда и т.д.). Особенности в работе архитектора в Японии. Что заказывают, насколько большой рынок и т.д. ROOFTOP URBANISM. Использование пространств на крышах, какие функции несет, как широко распространено (у нас это встречается редко, на и в европе не так часто). Справка: ВРОНИКА ИКОННИКОВА Архитектор украинского происхождения проживающая сейчас в Японии. Закончила магистратуру в Токийском университете, а сейчас работает архитектором в Токио, в офисе Kengo Kuma and Associates. Rooftop Urbanism - это исследовательский проект о том, как используется пространство на крышах в мегаполисах на примере Токио. В отличие от Западного, европейского контекста, в странах Азии использования пространства на крышах довольно распространено. Потребности, вызванные большой плотностью населения, высокими ценами на недвижимость и обычно малой площадью архитектурных пространств заставляют некоторые функции "выливаться" на свободное пространство крыш. Целью проекту является исследовать пространства крыш в Токио, зафиксировать примеры использования крыш и дополнительных зданий на них и попытаться представить потенциал этого пространства в большом городе.

State of Wonder is starting a new series focused on architecture, design, and the changing face of the city with columnist-in-residence Randy Gragg. Gragg is the executive director of the John Yeon Center for Architecture and the Landscape at the University of Oregon, and previously worked as editor in chief at "Portland Monthly" and as the long-time architecture critic at the "Oregonian."For our first story together, we're going to look at one of the most significant building projects going on in the city right now: the expansion of the Portland Japanese Garden. It's a $33.5 million dollar project that will transform the garden from one of the leading facilities in the country into one of the leaders in the world. And its being speared by Kengo Kuma, perhaps the leading Japanese architect of his generation who recently won the right to design the stadium for the upcoming 2020 Tokyo Olympics.“This Japanese garden is as beautiful as Japanese garden in Japan,” Kuma told Gragg during a tour of the site on why he chose to make this his first project in the United States. "More than that, it's more unique, it's more strong, because of the landscape.”Read the full story: http://www.opb.org/artsandlife/article/starchitect-kengo-kumas-ambitious-plans-for-the-portland-japanese-garden

Richard Leplastrier is a seminal figure in Australian architecture and architectural education. He eschews publicity and his built works are secret treasures to be discovered only by those privileged enough to be introduced to them. His sensitivity to issues of culture and place and his accumulated wisdom in the design and making of architecture is gently revealed though his tutorial sessions in the design studio. He received national recognition in 1999 through the award of the Gold Medal of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects. Richard has received international recognition through receipt of the 2004 ‘Spirit of Nature Wood Architecture Award’. The award, established in Finland by the Wood in Culture Association, is granted every second year for architectural excellence. Other recipients of the Award include 2000 Renzo Piano, Kengo Kuma, Peter Zumthor, José Cruz Ovalle from Chile and in 2010 to Hermann Kaufmann. He has been awarded the Dreyer Foundation Prize of Honour 2009 in Denmark, the first time an architect from outside Denmark has received this prize.
