Podcasts about Koolhaas

In this episode of the A is for Architecture Podcast, I spoke with Associate Professor of Urban Planning at Hunter College, Stefan Al, and Professor at New York Institute of Technology, Tom Verebes, about their recent co-edited book, The Urbanism Reader: Design, Technology, Culture and the Future of Cities, published by Bloomsbury (2025). Orientated towards design in the contemporary city, The Urbanism Reader gathers together key texts that explore urban theory, planning and development pertinent to the city as we find it now – a messy, networked and highly technological state which inflects, if not forms, the modern citizen and their social world . Bringing together influential writings from scholars and practitioners, including greats like Venturi and Scott Brown, Tschumi, Frampton, Kwinter, Eisenman, Koolhaas and  Maas, but also introducing new voices and accents, including Anne Whiston Spirn, Anaya Roy, Walter Hood and Andrea Moneta among many others, the book presents a good overview of key themes, like virtuality, computationality, informality, equity, ecology, density and connectivity. To stand back from all this thinking and just look is thrilling really. Have a listen and find out why you should. Tom and Stefan are great to hear.Stefan also leads his own practice, Stefan Al Architects and Tom is founder and Creative Director of OCEAN CN. Both gentlemen can be found on LinkedIn and Instagram.  The book is linked above.#Urbanism #CityPlanning #UrbanDesign #TheUrbanismReader #SustainableCities #UrbanTheory #SmartCities #StefanAlAndTomVerebes #ArchitetcurePodcast #AisforArchitecturePodcast+Music credits: ⁠Bruno Gillick 

SMLXL (1995) was the brainchild of Rem Koolhaas, principal of OMA, rhetorically and stylistically a rejection of the norms of architectural monographs, this 1400 page silver brick was one of the most iconic art books of the 1990s. It is a strange piece of architectural publishing, and very 90s, a mixture of post-modern literary sensibilities, greasy full bleed photography and polemic against Koolhaas's teachers and peers.

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 our second episode on Rem Koolhaas's Delirious New York, we covered his discussion of three heroic skyscrapers of Manhattanism's golden age: The Empire State Building, The New York Athletic Club and The Rockefeller Centre. We also tried to further explain Koolhaas's unique way of thinking about history, and the particular emphases of his project.

De Triathlon van Almere, tegenwoordig bekend als “Challenge Almere-Amsterdam” en vroeger ook wel bekend als de Holland Triathlon, is de bekendste triathlon van Nederland en wordt sinds 1983 elk jaar in Almere gehouden. De Holland Triathlon is na Hawaii de oudste triathlonwedstrijd over de lange afstand van de wereld. In deze Almere specials kijken we naar de historie van deze race en vooral vooruit naar het komende EK op 9 september 2023.

Se Yoon Park, 2023. Image courtesy of Carvalho Park, New York. Se Yoon Park 박세윤 (b. 1979, South Korea) is a sculptor living and working in New York. Park's foundation in architecture is reverberated through the deft construction of his geometries and manipulation of gravity in his sculptural installations. Integral to his perspective is the deconstructivist approach of Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas, founder of Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA), Netherlands, where Park began his career as an architect. Koolhaas' concept of the diagram, sourcing all possibilities on approach to a structure, is a defining principle of Park's practice as a sculptor. Park conducted his undergraduate studies in architecture at the department of Architectural Engineering at Yonsei University in Seoul and holds a Master of Architecture from Columbia University in New York. In addition to his time at OMA, his work in the realm of architecture includes positions with Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), Fernando Romero Enterprise (FREE), and with Joshua Ramus (REX). Park began his exploration of light and shadow in his own work as a sculptor in 2014. His work has since been shown by the European Culture Centre in Venice, in tandem with the 57th Venice Biennale, at the United Nations in the 13th UNCCD exhibition, and in solo and two-person exhibitions in New York and Seoul, at Carvalho Park (New York), Gallery Mark (Seoul), and Huue Contemporary (Seoul, Singapore), and as public art commissions in South Korea. His work has been featured in the Brooklyn Rail, Wallpaper* magazine, Artnet News, Dovetail magazine, Surface, Naver Design Press, Artsy Editorial, the Seoulive, Segye Daily, Seoul Economy Daily, among others.

Ik spreek met schaatshistoricus Marnix Koolhaas. Hij weet 'schaatscultuur op de gekste plekken te vinden, van Goethe tot gletsjers, van tango-legende Carlos Gardel tot de sultan van Boeloengan'. Hoogste tijd om met deze schaatsprofessor te duiken in de geschiedenis van de schaatssport. Waarom schaatsen wij Nederlanders allemaal? En hoe is die beroemde Elfstedentocht ooit ontstaan? Montage door Kevin Brouwer

We zitten vandaag met een groot gezelschap aan tafel, we ontvangen niemand minder dan Menno Koolhaas. Een van die toppers van de zogeheten ‘nieuwe generatie' op de long distance. Hoe is hij ooit terecht gekomen bij de sport en hoe kijkt hij naar de toekomst? We blikken met z'n allen vooruit naar IRONMAN Israël die voor de deur staat. Ook vragen we aan zowel Menno als Milan of het nationaal record op de lange afstand er deze week aan gaat?

On this week's Inspirational Women in Recruitment Podcast, we are joined by Dinette Koolhaas is Senior Vice President, and President of Kelly International. Based in Switzerland, Dinette is focused on driving growth strategies across Kelly operations in Europe, Russia, Mexico, and Brazil. Dinette serves on the board of the World Employment Confederation and has been recognized by Staffing Industry Analysts as one of the most influential people in the staffing industry. Enjoy!

Niels Kerdel, één van de beste Age Groupers in Nederland stopt ermee. Genoeg is genoeg, zoals hij het zelf zegt. Klaar is klaar. We voelen hem in deze aflevering aan de tand over die toch wel moeilijke beslissing. Daarnaast bespreken we het Ironman-succes van Menno Koolhaas en een opmerkelijke judo-move van Tim.

Alyona Koolhaas, PCOM's MOPS and nursery coordinator, shares stories of God at work from her childhood in Kiev to the fall of the Soviet Union to falling in love with an American in Wisconsin. From her love of tiny tots to her deepening relationship with great big God, this is not a story to miss.

Barend Koolhaas is (net als zijn achter-oom Rem) architect, maar wil nu een auto ontwikkelen: de minimal car. Een beetje als de Fairphone, vertelt hij in deze aflevering van MENS, maar dan op wielen. Kijk voor alle afleveringen van MENS op vn.nl/mens

Het ogenschijnlijk minimalistische autootje dat Barend Koolhaas bedacht, lijkt het tegenovergestelde van een Tesla, maar is zeker niet minder vooruitstrevend.

This week hosts Afra and Izzy nerd out about Edward Norton’s 2019 film “Motherless Brooklyn” with our special first-time guest, DK-an architect based in New York. The neo-noir film touches on a lot of topics we love to talk about: the fight for racial equality in the U.S., the urban plan3ning history of NYC, housing rights in the past and at present. The movie may not be the most famous one coming out of the last award season, but it’s a lovingly crafted story with a lot of ambition and heart. Please find it and watch it if possible. In this episode, you will hear about:Why noir films have a gender problem, and how Motherless Brooklyn approaches thatJane Jacobs vs. Robert Moses, death and life of great American cities What happened to Penn Station?Housing rights then and now (this sounds like a one-semester course, oops)What’s lost in China’s frenzy of housing development/urbanization? Is Edward Norton living by his principles? A rhetorical question.The impossible choice between Ed Norton and Brad Pitt, both at the height of their beauty.

La storia di Rem Koolhaas (Rotterdam, 1944), a partire dagli esordi come giornalista e sceneggiatore, è simile a quella di un romanziere del nostro tempo, poi diventato un'agile spia dell'architettura e delle città contemporanee, quindi un discepolo indisciplinato, creatore di concetti spiazzanti, sia scritti che disegnati.Andrea Margaritelli commenta l'articolo di Maurizio De Caro sul Magazine One. Leggi qui - bit.ly/remkoolhaasguggenheim

For its first-ever live episode, recorded at the 2020 Armory Show, the Art Angle brought on couture wunderkind Sander Lak, the creative director of the white-hot Sies Marjan, to discuss the intersection of art and fashion. The Dutch designer, who named his label after his parents, strutted out onto the sartorial landscape in 2016 with his debut collection, and he was officially anointed by the high-fashion establishment in 2018 when the esteemed Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) named him its Best New Designer. His collections are defined by deep jewel-tones and streamlined, sleek silhouettes that are beloved by celebrities and mere mortals alike—and as a longtime art enthusiast, Lak consistently finds fascinating ways to incorporate the work of boundary-pushing contemporary artists into his work. At the time of this conversation, the Guggenheim Museum in New York had just unveiled the epic exhibition "Countryside, the Future," an examination of the pastoral in an urbanized world by the visionary starchitect Rem Koolhaas and his studio, OMA. Sies Marjan, helmed by Lak, signed on as a sponsor of the exhibition, and Lak was given unrestricted access to Koolhaas and his trove of research on the show to mine as inspiration for his Fall 2020 fashion line. The result was more than a new collection of rustic accoutrement. It became a point of reckoning for Lak and his perspective on the fashion industry at large, as well as how his practice—and the discipline at large—relates to contemporary art.

Een aflevering wederom opgenomen in het oudste triathlonhuis van Nederland, we bellen met Menno Koolhaas en horen hem uit over zijn seizoen, Nederlandse titel Olympische afstand en plannen voor de lange afstand. Daarna bespreken we de afwijkende stayerafstand op het NK en EK lange afstand in Almere en de opmerkelijke diskwalificatie van de nummer 2 (Koen Rutjes) van de eerste editie van de Gelreman. Verder doen we een korte recap van de afgelopen weken met uitslagen, wedstrijdverslagen en voorspellingen, en natuurlijk ontbreken de beste koopjes bij onze Chinese vrienden ook deze aflevering niet.

A fuzzy empire of blur, a low grade purgatory, a perpetual Jacuzzi with millions of your best friends…We're discussing Junkspace (2001), Rem Koolhaas's notoriously elliptical wander through the dystopian and formless morass of early 21st retail architecture that seems gradually to be devouring the city, and the world. In keeping with the essay, the episode is radically unstructured, only barely makes sense, and is held together largely by hyperbole. We discussed – – Rem Koolhaas and OMA – The books SMLXL and Delirious New York – Exodus: The Voluntary Prisoners of Architecture – Frederic Jameson's review of Junkspace in NLR 21 (2003) – Jameson's Postmodernism, Or the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism (1991) – Walter Benajmin's Passagenwerk or Arcades ProjectMusic – 'Ruca' and 'Agnes' from the album 'Teal' by Rod Hamilton and 'Curiosity', 'Quisitive' and 'Biking in the Park' from the album 'Music for Podcasts' by Lee Rosevere; both from the Free Music Archive Blue Gas 'Shadows From Nowhere' (1984)This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Tomas Koolhaas is a filmmaker in Los Angeles, whose most recent project, a documentary about his father Rem, recently premiered at the Venice Film Festival. REM follows its titular architect around the world, visiting his projects and investigating their human impact. Aware of his special perspective on the film's subject, Tomas didn't want REM to be a teary biopic or heady architectural salvo, but something more impressionistic and accessible, appealing to emotions over intellectualism. We speak about managing family relationships in creative work, his influences as a filmmaker, and film's role in architectural media at large.

Bart Lootsma vergleicht in einer kulturellen Analyse das Maison à Bordeaux von OMA/Rem Koolhaas mit der Villa Tugendhat von Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.

James Howard Kunstler shares his observations of Seattle based on his recent trip to that city. He believes that the Queen Anne Hill neighborhood gives one an idea of what the best of American urbanism can be, inspite of some clunky housing types. Though downtown is active and fairly pleasant, JHK has ominous feelings about the future of its many glass apartment towers. Kunstler also describes the Capitol Hill neighborhood, University District, Pike Place Market and Pioneer Square. He talks about riding the bus and the lessons we can learn from the lame monorail. Seattle is also home to the ubiquitous coffee chain Starbucks, which has many downsides to it, but which has also introduced some culture to certain places that had previously lacked any sort of "third place."

A listener asks James Howard Kunstler to react to the Feb. 9 fire that destroyed a Beijing building by Dutch starchitect Rem Koolhaas. Kunstler believes many famous architects, including Koolhaas, often strive to confound people in order to appear supernaturally brilliant. It's all in the service of grandiosity and narcissism, though. Rather than attempting to disturb our expectations, architects should strive to give us buildings that are neurologically comprehensible and that satisfy our need for cultural orientation. Kunstler also takes shots at a proposed skyscraper in Boston and the Southern Poverty Law Center. **Tim Halber, managing editor of Planetizen, responds in a listener comment to Duncan's recent comments about the failures of new urbanism.

Some architects depend on computer rendering and much of their reputation is built on computer imagery -- but when was the last time you saw a building in real life that looked better than the rendering? In the computer images, buildings are often depicted at night, with the translucent walls aglow, offering glimpses of life inside. Zaha Hadid, Daniel Libeskind, and Rem Koolhaas know the power of persuasion in creating a rendering as an inspirational sales tool. But what does this mean to all of us who have to live with the buildings -- in the real world -- and face the disappointment of seeing the building built, and it's not as ethereal, as glowing, as interesting as it was presented to us in the rendering? The answer might be found in a winking Jesus. Pictured is the rendering and reality views of the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati, designed by Zaha Hadid.
