From 2023 May 10 to August 7, the Centre Pompidou (or "Beaubourg" for those who know him well ;-) ) is dedicating an exhibition to a major world figure in architecture: Sir Norman Foster, PRITZKER Prize. This world-renowned architect is at the head of one of the world's largest architectural firms, Foster + Partners, which designed, for example, the Apple headquarters in Cupertino, California, and the Millau Viaduct. His rise has been meteoric. He himself says Architect's of the world (...) don't take yourselves so seriously. In addition to this flagship exhibition, this event is an opportunity for us to question the figure of the architect!

As founder of his eponymous New York firm, visionary architect Morris Adjmi's work is deeply rooted in a respect for heritage while embracing innovation. With a career shaped by early experiences working alongside Pritzker Prize-winning architect Aldo Rossi, Adjmi developed a distinct approach that balances modern aesthetics anchored in a deep understanding of architectural and cultural history. His projects, spanning adaptive reuse to new construction, reflect a meticulous attention to detail. Take the recently opened Forth Atlanta, which is revitalizing the Georgia city's Old Fourth Ward with Adjmi's signature refined yet curated style. Adjmi's forthcoming projects—including the renovation of the Swan Hotel at Disney World in Orlando, Florida and the Four Seasons Hotel Charleston in South Carolina—maintain a dialogue between past and future to honor each city's identity while reimagining its possibilities.This episode is brought to you by American Leather.

Welcome to a very special Part 2 Episode of Architectette! We continue our conversation with Denise Scott Brown. Denise Scott Brown is an architect; planner & urban designer; and a theorist, writer and educator whose projects, research, and writing have influenced designers and architects since the 1960s. Her writings have changed the practice of architecture as we know it and her built work spans several continents. Some of her notable writings include Learning from Las Vegas, Having Words, and Architecture as Signs and Systems. She was a long-standing principal of the firm Venturi, Scott Brown and Associates. Many of the topics we cover are influenced from the recently published book, ⁠Denise Scott Brown in Other Eyes: Portraits of an Architect⁠ edited by Frida Grahn.   Check out our social media @architectette on Instagram, the Architectette Podcast Page on LinkedIn, and our newsletter at architectette.com for behind the scenes exclusives and clips from the recording.  We talk about: - The challenges of balancing community and developer needs for Philadelphia's South Street and how racial politics influenced the process.  - Denise's design process for the Provincial Capitol Building in Toulouse. She explains her inspiration for the building's iconic diagonal and other aesthetic elements. - Inspiration for her article: Sexism and the Star System which talks about gender and architecture. We hear from her first hand what it was like to be seen as a lesser partner to Robert Venturi and how she dealt with being overlooked, rejected from the Pritzker Prize, or not acknowledged for her significant contributions.  - In addition to her illustrious career, Denise was a mom! She shares about her son, Jimmy, and the realities of balancing career and parenthood. - How Denise became interested in photography to document and study urban conditions and she shares the influences and experience behind that ICONIC photo of her and Bob (Venturi) with the Las Vegas Strip in the background. - We end with the National Gallery- sign the petition to save the building! I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed interviewing Denise. (Denise, Emma, and Nyma - THANK YOU!)

第2170期:In Tokyo Neighborhood, Artistic Toilets Get Attention

Tokyo visitors can now join a special tour of one of the Japanese city's modern wonders: its public toilets.东京游客现在可以参加一次特别游览,参观这座日本城市的现代奇观之一:公共厕所。Penelope Panczuk recently went on the Tokyo Toilet Shuttle for a two-hour visit of artistic public bathrooms.佩内洛普·潘祖克 (Penelope Panczuk) 最近乘坐东京厕所班车,参观了两个小时的艺术公共浴室。Panczuk got the idea after seeing "Perfect Days", the Oscar-nominated film about a toilet cleaner in the city's Shibuya district.潘丘克在观看奥斯卡提名影片《完美的日子》后萌生了这个想法,这部影片讲述了涩谷区厕所清洁工的故事。"In the U.S. or in France where I originally come from, you just don't go," Panczuk said of using public bathrooms.“在美国或我的祖国法国,你就别去,”潘丘克在谈到使用公共浴室时说道。She added that in Tokyo, the bathrooms are "extremely clean, they're very safe and each one is so different it feels like it's a new discovery each time."她补充说,在东京,浴室“非常干净,非常安全,而且每间浴室都如此不同,感觉每次都是一个新发现。”The shuttle began in March with visitors coming to Japan in record numbers. A drop in the value of the Japanese yen has made it less costly for many lovers of Japanese culture to visit for the first time.班车于三月份开始运营,前往日本的游客数量创下了历史新高。 日元贬值使得许多日本文化爱好者首次访问日本的成本降低了。Among Japan's most-loved technological exports in recent years are its toilets produced by TOTO. The devices have cleansing sprays, heated seats, music, and more.日本近年来最受欢迎的技术出口产品之一是TOTO生产的马桶。 这些设备有清洁喷雾、加热座椅、音乐等等。The American animated comedy show South Park recently had a whole program on the toilets. Hip-hop music star DJ Khaled announced on Instagram that he appreciated a gift of four TOTO bowls from the rapper Drake.美国动画喜剧节目《南方公园》最近有一整套关于厕所的节目。 嘻哈音乐明星 DJ Khaled 在 Instagram 上宣布,他很欣赏说唱歌手 Drake 赠送的四个 TOTO 碗礼物。The nonprofit Nippon Foundation started the Tokyo Toilet Project in 2020. It asked creators including Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando to develop new toilets. The goal was to increase accessibility and artistry in 17 public toilets in the Shibuya district.非营利组织日本财团于 2020 年启动了东京厕所项目。它要求包括普利兹克奖获得者建筑师安藤忠雄在内的创作者开发新厕所。 目标是提高涩谷区 17 个公厕的无障碍性和艺术性。The project was not meant to be something foreign visitors would want to see. But Shibuya's government saw a chance to increase interest in the area beyond its famous street crossing.该项目并不是外国游客愿意看到的。 但涩谷政府看到了一个机会,可以提高人们对该地区除了著名的十字路口之外的兴趣。"The highlight for visitors is that they can be driven around the less-visited parts of Shibuya and enjoy the entire district while checking out the toilets," said Yumiko Nishi, a tourist association manager for the area.该地区旅游协会经理西由美子 (Yumiko Nishi) 表示:“对游客来说,最大的亮点是他们可以开车游览涩谷人迹罕至的地区,并在检查厕所的同时欣赏整个地区。”People on the tour pay $32.76 to visit nine different toilets, including one with clear walls that turn opaque when users enter. Another is operated by voice commands.参观者支付 32.76 美元参观九个不同的厕所,其中一个厕所的墙壁是透明的,当用户进入时,墙壁就会变得不透明。 另一种是通过语音命令操作。Takao Karino, visiting from Japan's western city of Osaka, wondered at the wide entrance of a facility created by British designer Miles Pennington.从日本西部城市大阪来访的卡里诺高夫 (Takao Karino) 对英国设计师迈尔斯·彭宁顿 (Miles Pennington) 设计的设施的宽阔入口感到惊讶。"There's nothing else like this in Japa" 69-year-old Karino said about the tour. "It's unusual, it's unique, it's honestly brilliant."69 岁的卡里诺 (Karino) 谈到这次巡演时说:“在日本没有其他这样的地方。” “这很不寻常,很独特,确实很出色。”

He believes that architecture should serve the needs of society, especially in times of crisis. Notable projects include the Paper Dome in Japan, which provided temporary housing after an earthquake, the Cardboard Cathedral in New Zealand, Centre Pompidou-Metz in France, the Japan Pavilion Expo 2000 in Germany, and the Aspen Art Museum.

As the founder and principal of MA, Morris Adjmi, FAIA is dedicated to understanding the history and complex forces that shape cities to create buildings that are contextual but unmistakably contemporary. Adjmi's passion for contextual architecture was formed by the cast-iron French Quarter balconies and crumbling Creole cottages in his hometown of New Orleans and refined in New York and Milan during a 13-year collaboration with Pritzker Prize-winning architect, Aldo Rossi.Morris established MA in 1997 following his collaboration with Rossi, and on that strong foundation, built a multidisciplinary design practice known for its thoughtful engagement with history, distinct interpretation of industrial forms, and creative expression of innovative materials. The resulting work has become a favourite of both forward-thinking developers and history-minded preservationists. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

“So for me being born in a place like Naples helped me absorb and to be constantly open and curious about other cultures, simply because they were part of my own culture. So it's a challenging city, I must say. And it's incredible how you more easily communicate with other people when you are in a place that you feel is a public place, but it belongs to you. It belongs to everyone. It's a space for the community. So this was the first lesson that I learned studying architecture because then you start to read the places in a more organized, scientific way. And I think maybe this dimension passed into my DNA.So from my point of view, a prize is not just to establish the most beautiful building, the most expensive building, or the tallest building in the world. It's rather to foster the discussion to bring forward critical points to be discussed. To bring forward contradictions, to really enhance the discussion about what is relevant for our society or for society in a specific moment.So this, for me, is the role of a prize, to highlight critical issues and to foster the discussion, to face them, and to find solutions, to find new paths. So in the case of the Pritzker Prize, the mission has been very clear since the very beginning. So it's to acknowledge a living architect or architects for a body of built work that has produced a consistent and significant contribution to humanity and to the built environment through the art of architecture.”Manuela Lucá-Dazio is the newly appointed Executive Director of the Pritzker Architecture Prize.

“So for me being born in a place like Naples helped me absorb and to be constantly open and curious about other cultures, simply because they were part of my own culture. So it's a challenging city, I must say. And it's incredible how you more easily communicate with other people when you are in a place that you feel is a public place, but it belongs to you. It belongs to everyone. It's a space for the community.

For the American-born chef and restaurateur Ruth Rogers, owner of the Michelin-starred River Cafe on the north bank of the Thames in London's Hammersmith neighborhood, food is a portal: to memories and cultures. To conversations. To meaningful connections. Since Rogers, who goes by Ruthie, co-founded the celebrated Italian restaurant with Rose Gray in 1987, it has become a well-trod stomping ground for a bevy of artists, filmmakers, writers, actors, architects, and other movers and shakers—many of whom have appeared on her podcast, Ruthie's Table 4, including the director Steve McQueen, British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful, and the artist Tracey Emin. Similarly, many highly regarded chefs have come up through the River Cafe's kitchen, including Jamie Oliver, April Bloomfield, and Jess Shadbolt and Clare de Boer of the New York restaurants King and Jupiter. Rogers's latest project, The River Cafe Look Book (Phaidon), captures her true spirit; that of the restaurant as a whole; and that of her late husband, the Pritzker Prize–winning architect Richard Rogers, to whom the book is dedicated. A book as much about looking as eating, it encourages, in Rogers's wonderfully joyful way, engaging the full body and mind as a cook. On this episode, Rogers talks with Spencer about her journey in food and cooking; her 35 years at the helm of the River Cafe; and the rigorous culture of kindness and openness, paired with toughness, that she has built at the restaurant, both in and out of the kitchen.Special thanks to our Season 6 sponsor, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Ruthie Rogers[03:32] The River Cafe Look Book[03:51] River Cafe 30[13:21] The River Cafe Cook Book[29:17] The River Cafe[41:53] Ruthie's Table 4

In 1992, Julie founded D.I.R.T studio – Dump It Right There – intent on regenerating contaminated and forgotten urban and post industrial sites. And it all began near Pittsburgh, at the Vintondale Reclamation Park, a 25-acre park on a former coal mine. The end result became the early poster child of her work, and a model for bioremediation featured in the Cooper Hewitt National Design Triennial.

"A park is a green space that has many purposes. But beyond that, recent parks pay a lot of attention to environmental issues that are now extremely important in view of climate change." Renowned architectural historian Victoria Newhouse joins the podcast. After her previous books that deal with some of the most important figures and buildings in 20th century architecture, she (and photographer Alex Pisha) is out with a book on the great urban parks of the 21st century. From Shanghai to Detroit, Brooklyn to Frankfurt, and everywhere in between, great new urban parks are being designed. Often reclaiming territory where factories, industrial waterfront, and wasteland had been, these new parks are redefining what “green space” can be in the modern world. Also in the conversation is a discussion about the future of affordable housing, and how 3D printing may be the technological solution to this great and growing societal problem.

The Friday Newsletter |  Daily Gardener Community   Friends of the Garden Meeting in Athens, Georgia Register Here   Historical Events 1763 Birth of William Cobbett, English writer, Member of Parliament, and farmer.  In Parliament, Wlliam fought for agrarian reform. He did this through his regular writings called Rural Rides, where he shared what he saw while taking horseback rides throughout rural England. William never forgot his rural roots, and he was a lifelong gardener. He once wrote, How much better during a long and dreary winter, for daughters, and even sons, to assist, or attend, their mother, in a green-house, than to be seated with her at cards, or, in the blubberings over a stupid novel, or at any other amusement that can possibly be conceived. And he also wrote,  If well-managed, nothing is more beautiful than the kitchen garden.   1845 Birth of Wilhelm Friedrich Philipp Pfeffer, German botanist and plant physiologist. Wilhelm was born in his father's apothecary. He grew up and learned every aspect of the business, which had been in his family for generations. One of his childhood friends noted, In those days, it was not yet customary to obtain drugs in cut and powdered form; thus, he spent hours cutting roots and herbs and pulverizing dried drugs with a heavy pestle in a mortar. In addition to life at the A=apothecary, Wilhelm loved collecting plants in the Alps. His early study of plants and his natural curiosity set the stage for his in-depth plant experiments as an adult. In terms of plant physiology, he's remembered for the Pfeffer pot or pepper pot to measure osmotic pressure in plant cells.   1874 Birth of Karl Foerster, German plant breeder, writer, and garden designer. When Karl turned 18, he took over his family's Berlin nursery, which was a bit of a mess. Karl quickly streamlined the business by simplifying his plant inventory. Although Karl loved all plants, he was especially drawn to tough, low-maintenance, hardy perennials. Karl used three factors to determine whether a plant would be sold in his nursery: beauty, resilience, and endurance. Today, Karl is most remembered in Karl Foerster Grass. The story goes that Karl was on a train when he spied the grass growing along the tracks. Karl frantically pulled the emergency brake, stopped the train, and quickly collected the specimen that now bears his name. In 2001, Karl Foerster grass was the Perennial Plant of the Year. Karl's plant standards and his appreciation for low maintenance spaces with year-long seasonal interest helped shape the New German Garden Style of garden design. A Karl Foerster garden had some signature plants: grasses, delphinium, and phlox. Naturally, all of these plants were favorites in Karl's breeding work. Karl once wrote, Grasses are the hair of mother earth. And he also wrote, A garden without phlox is not only a sheer mistake but a sin against summer. Karl lived to the ripe old age of 96. And looking back, it's staggering to think that Karl spent nearly nine decades gardening, and it was Karl Foerster who said, In my next life, I'd like to be a gardener once again.  The job was too big for just one lifetime.   1892 Birth of Vita Sackville-West, English author and garden designer. In 1930, Vita and her husband, the diplomat, and journalist Harold Nicolson, bought Sissinghurst Castle - at least what was left of it. Together, they restored the house and created the famous garden, which was given to the National Trust in 1967. Vita explored the depths of her own creativity as she shaped the gardens at Sissinghurst. When she came up with the idea for a Sunset Garden, she wrote, I used to call it the Sunset Garden in my own mind before I even planted it up. Vita's Sunset Garden included flowers with warm citrus colors, like the yellows, oranges, and reds of Dahlia's Salvias Canas and tulips. Vita also created a White Garden – one of the most difficult Gardens to design, maintain and pull off. Why is that? Well, the main reason is that, after flowering, most white blooms don't age well; they turn brown or yellow as they wither and die on the plant. But I have to say that ten years ago, I did help a friend install a white garden. And when it was in bloom, it really was spectacular. During World War II, there came a point when Vita and Harold were convinced that a German invasion of Britain was likely. Vita planted 11,000 daffodils, a message of defiance to the enemy. In 1955, Vita was honored with the Veitch Memorial Medal. She died seven years later in 1962. She once wrote, The waking bee, still drowsy on the wing,  Will sense the opening of another year  And blunder out to seek another spring.   Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation The Art of Edible Flowers by Rebecca Sullivan  This book came out in 2018, and the subtitle is Recipes and ideas for floral salads, drinks, desserts, and more. This sweet little book is a fun little recipe book of the many ways flowers can be incorporated into drinks and edibles.

In 1980, he won the Pritzker Prize, the highest award in architecture. In 1948 he designed and built his own home with cement after being inspired by local modernist architecture. In 2004, the Luis Barragan house was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In addition to architecture, Luis loved landscapes. He once wrote, I don't divide architecture, landscape and gardening; to me they are one. And he also wrote, A garden must combine the poetic and he mysterious with a feeling of serenity and joy.   Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, garden every day.

Extremely active in the academia, she has been a visiting professor at Harvard University, Columbia University and Barcelona ETSAB, lecturing regularly at architecture forums and universities, and part of jurors around the world, the Princesa de Asturias awards and since 2014 member of the jury of the Pritzker Prize.Her professional beginning, the close collaboration with the husband and working partner, Enric Miralles, a kind of legendary figure, a man endowed with a particular charismatic and strong personality, will be the starting point of our conversation. A journey together that will represent a reciprocal growth, giving opportunity for many famous realizations, and will bring Benedetta, Italian, born in Milan, to deeply understand and love Spain.In EMBT works is recurrent the research of sophisticated combinations and unusual applications of materials, with the frequent collaboration of talented artists, as Toni Cumella, coming from a long ceramist family tradition, for the Parc Dels Colors, 2002, Diagonal Mar Park, 2003, and Santa Caterina Market in 2005, until one of the most recent projects, Plateau Central Masterplan and Housing, at the periphery of Parisian suburbs, presented for this 17th Venice Architecture Biennale, that sees the contribution of the famous street artist JR. “Living within a market - Outside space is also Home”, title of the installation, intends to emphasise the value embodied by an abandoned area transformed into a colorful plaza, similar to Santa Caterina Market in Barcelona, that will encourage the community's participation and integration between the residents.There is a frequent expression of Benedetta 'little by little' that characterises some of her attempts, born as aspirations without any certainty of success but gradually developed into important projects, as for example the adventure in China, crowned by several gratifying, important projects, as the recent Conservatory of Music in Shenzhen, first prize winner in an international competition.Kálida Sant Pau, part of an international network of hospitals created by the Scottish Maggie's Foundation, finished almost a year ago, represents another moment of our talk, having been for Benedetta an occasion to reimagine healthcare and hospital facilities, providing patients with spaces full of light, in between greenery and nature, able to transmit a warm, serene atmosphere. And above this intervention, she will speak of another laudable and important initiative conceived in 2011, the creation of the Enric Miralles Foundation, whose goal is to promote experimental architecture.

Invité en 2010 au Pavillon de l'Arsenal, Franck Gehry, architecte américano-canadien, Pritzker Prize 1989 revient sur les étapes de conception et de construction de la fondation Luma. Cette réalisation hybride, entre tour et rotonde, aux volumes opaques dont la hauteur est de 56m, s'intègre dans l'agglomération de la ville d'Arles. « C'est toujours le même processus, on fait des petits blocs, des maquettes qui prennent forme peu à peu, on étudie les avantages et inconvénients de chaque possibilités, de chaque projet avec le client. Nous avons décidé de nous intéresser à une matière particulière, une structure qui n'avait jamais été employée jusque là : une forme d'aluminium alvéolée.... Et le site habitait autrefois des tours encore plus hautes que celles que j'ai construite. Des tours que l'on voyait dans certains des tableaux des peintures de Van Gogh. On a voulu s'inspirer de cela dans la construction de ce site à Arles ». Un podcast à écouter dans le cadre d'une série dédiée aux tours et à la hauteur pour penser léger, s'affranchir des contraintes, prendre de la hauteur, avoir la tête dans les nuages.

Christian de Portzamparc, premier architecte français à recevoir le prestigieux Pritzker Prize en 1994, présente la tour LVMH construite au coeur de l'un des quartiers les plus prisés de New-York, entre la 5e avenue et la Madison. Véritable évènement lors de son inauguration, cet immeuble spectaculaire dans ses lignes fluides, en creux et en relief fut un réel défi pour l'architecte qui souhaitait innover tout en respectant le très contraignant code de la construction new-yorkais. « Dans un premier temps de lʼétude, la petite maison de la Galerie Wally Findlay devait rester entre les deux tours et la parcelle du projet était très étroite : la réponse a été un empilage hasardeux et joyeux de volumes cubiques et cylindriques ... » Penser léger, s'affranchir des contraintes, prendre de la hauteur, avoir la tête dans les nuages, une série de podcasts dédiée aux tours et l'acte de construire la hauteur.

Penser léger, s'affranchir des contraintes, prendre de la hauteur, avoir la tête dans les nuages, une série de podcasts dédiée aux tours et l'acte de construire la hauteur. Invité en 2006 au Pavillon de l'Arsenal, l'architecte Jean Nouvel, Pritzker Prize, revient sur l'histoire de la Tour Agbar à Barcelone, de la conception à la livraison de cette architecture iconique. Parée de 50000 lames de verre colorées, cette tour de 35 étages est devenue un véritable symbole de la capitale catalane. Se définissant comme « architecte de situation », l'architecture doit aux yeux de l'architecte intervenir pour répondre à une situation, à un contexte. Ainsi « la tour de Barcelone n'est pas une tour, un gratte-ciel au sens américain du terme : c'est une émergence unique au milieu d'une ville plutôt calme. Mais pas une verticale élancée et nerveuse comme les flèches ou les clochers qui généralement ponctuent les villes horizontales. Non, c'est plutôt une masse fluide qui aurait perforé le sol, un geyser à pression permanente et dosée. La surface de l'édifice évoque l'eau : lisse, continue mais aussi vibrante et transparente puisque la matière se lit en profondeur colorée et incertaine, lumineuse et nuancée ».
