How architecture can improve life quality of hospitalized children

Tuesday, August 6, 2024 • Duration 33:53

How can architecture transform the experience of healthcare for children? Can design elements like colors, materials, shapes, and daylight even help improve the young patients' lives?

Denmark is about to get its first purpose-built children's hospital, Børneriget, which is scheduled to open in 2026 in central Copenhagen. Børneriget aims to redefine pediatric healthcare with its unique "finger plan" layout, focusing on creating a welcoming and safe environment through thoughtful design. But how can these elements enhance patient well-being and improve the hospital experience?

In this episode of Let's Talk Architecture, host Michael Booth explores the design of Børneriget with lead architect, Stig Gothelf, senior partner at 3XN, and My Lunsjö, Associate and Behavioral Specialist at sister company GXN.

Together they dive into the research behind their design choices, discussing how aspects like color schemes and views of nature are intended to reduce stress and support healing.

How to make good business within the planetary boundaries

Thursday, July 4, 2024 • Duration 31:51

How can you create more sustainable, affordable, and inclusive housing if you also happen to live in a capitalist society? And can you even exploit the capitalist system to create a better world?

Home.Earth might have an answer. As a new and rather radical real estate company, Home.Earth is doing things differently: The company not only builds low-emission, high-quality housing – they also take care of finding tenants, manage the properties afterwards and give tenants a share of their profit.

The aim of taking care of the building throughout its entire lifespan, rather than developing for a quick return of investments, is to create business cases, where the planetary agenda is aligned with the financial agenda. But what does it take to make good business within the planetary boundaries?

In this episode, Michael Booth visits Home.earth's head office in Amager to meet its co-founder Rasmus Juul-Nyholm and to hear about Home.Earth's environmentally and economically sustainable case.

Why waste cannot go to waste in the building industry

Tuesday, September 5, 2023 • Duration 01:08:44

One way the built environment can mitigate its massive negative climate impact is by focusing architecture on reusing, repairing, refurbishing, and recycling elements. Essentially building within a circular economy framework. However, many central players in the building industry are reluctant to change their approach to materials usage. So, what is preventing us from building a circular society?

In this live episode of Let's Talk Architecture, Michael Booth sits down in a cross-cultural conversation with leading experts on the circular economy within construction, Anders Lendager (Lendager), and Maarten Gielen (Rotor), as they share their experiences, hopes, and concerns regarding architecture within a circular economy. Both guests express their pessimism as they envision the future of the circular economy in the construction industry. But there is also reasons to be optimistic. You can hear why on this episode.

How experimenting can foster sustainable living

Monday, August 28, 2023 • Duration 34:31

Cities are attracting more and more people, but finding an affordable home can become a struggle – especially for students making the move. In Copenhagen the demand for student housing has led to new ways of building and living. The goal is to create space for more people by living smaller and sharing more. CPH Village is a leading actor in constructing – and experimenting with – temporary and affordable housing. But this is no easy task changing the housing industry – and the law.

In this episode of Let's talk architecture the cofounder of CPH Village, Frederik Noltenius Busk, takes Michael Booth on a tour of their fourth iteration of their student villages, Village Nørrebro, that promises small homes, lots of community and even a low carbon footprint. And lots of learnings too.

The secrets behind producing great architects

Wednesday, August 2, 2023 • Duration 34:50

What are the secrets behind producing great architects? This question becomes increasingly difficult to answer simply as the world becomes ever more complex and undergoes constant change.

In this episode of Let's Talk Architecture, the host, Michael Booth, visits the Architecture School in Aarhus to engage in a conversation with the principal, Torben Nielsen, about the school's raw and simple design crafted by ADEPT. They also delve into the necessity of redefining craftsmanship, the distinctions in architectural education, and students who aspire to change the world.

How AI changes architecture as we know it

Season 1

Thursday, June 1, 2023 • Duration 30:36

These days artificial intelligence (AI) is in the spotlight – from fearsome warnings about societal impacts presented by leading figures in the tech industries and on to hopeful imaginations of a better future. But can AI also help create better, more sustainable, and even more democratic architecture? At the architectural company Henning Larsen they seem to think so, and their use of AI in their architectural practices help running big operations more smoothly.

In this episode of Let's talk architecture the guest, Signe Kongebro, Global Design Director, Urbanism and Partner at Henning Larsen walks our host Michael Booth through some of the ways AI is already in use in their everyday work. For instance, high-speed AI-generated renderings can make design processes and citizen engagement more efficient, and in the end inspire new forms and layouts. Listen in on how AI is already helping to shape our cities.

How the rising sea levels call for new ways to imagine the future cities

Season 1

Thursday, May 25, 2023 • Duration 26:37

The UN General Secretary proclaims the climate change consequences will be of 'biblical proportions'. But what will that feel like in the cities we know and love today – and what can we expect from the solutions? That is what the team behind the Danish contribution to the Venice Architecture Biennale has set out to explore. The exhibition "Coastal Imaginaries" explores how we can secure the livability in coastal cities by staging the future scenarios theatrically to create emotional experiences of climate change. Join us for this episode of Let's Talk Architecture when Michael Booth visits the Danish Pavilion in Venice to interview curator Josephine Michau and scenographer Christian Friedländer. Through the exhibition they intend to evoke a sense of hope in the audience while grasping a rather dark future.

Where to find ugly architecture in the World Capital of Architecture?

Season 1 · Episode 27

Thursday, May 4, 2023 • Duration 30:46

In 2023 Copenhagen is named the World Capital of Architecture by UNESCO due to the city's livability and architecture which is renowned and praised by internationals as well as locals. But not all architectural realities deserve an award, and in this episode, we take a hard look at some of the Copenhagen buildings we condemn rather than praise. Your host Michael Booth takes a tour around the city with Holger Dahl, architectural critic from the Danish national newspaper Berlingske, and together they explore Copenhagen's less popular sites. Even the home of Danish Architecture Center, BLOX, gets a few punches, although this construction seems to be growing on Holger Dahl. Come visit us some day and let us know what you think.

How to protect a livable city against disasters

Season 1 · Episode 26

Monday, March 20, 2023 • Duration 34:47

No one knows what the future brings, so how can architects make sure their design is resilient tomorrow as well as today? Resilience is a hot topic in architecture circles, and it's increasingly on the agenda from the earlier stages of design and planning. But what does 'resilience' even mean? And how do you design for livable cities and resilient communities in an unknown future? We went to Berlin to discover how the German capital can be considered resilient. Martin Henn, the third generation of his family to lead HENN architects, and Caroline Nagel, project director at the celebrated Cobe architects in Copenhagen, joins Michael Booth in his quest to pin down the meaning of resilience in architecture, and how we can protect a livable city against disasters.
