In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with Céline Baumann about her work as a landscape architect, an educator, and a teacher. Céline is a French landscape architect based in Basel, Switzerland. Her work has been exhibited at Manifesta 14 in Prishtina, Matadero in Madrid, the Swiss Architecture Museum in Basel, the Royal Academy of Arts in London and the Oslo Architecture Triennale. She has been nominated for the Swiss Art Awards in 2021, was a fellow at the Akademie Schloss Solitude in 2020, alumna of the Future Architecture Platform in 2019 and was awarded the Youth awards of the European federation of landscape architects in 2018. Celine’s practice makes spaces which seek to form an open ecological relationship between human beings and the diverse fauna and flora of each specific site. Based on ideas of intersectionality and care her work encompasses research, exhibition and landscape design. Naturally collaborative Céline argues for attitudes to landscape which are at once generous, permissive, and robust - enhancing the built environment as an ecology for people, plants and inspect life. Céline is currently Guest Professor in the ETH, Zurich; and in the past has been visiting Professor to the EPFL, and to Kaiserslautern.

In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with David Knight and Cristina Monteiro of DK-CM architects. Their practice is one concerned with the public in many forms. Often their clients are public bodies, their work is very much for the public, and they often seek to incorporate these public voices into their design processes. In many ways they carry a tradition here with a long lineage in architecture - of architectures role in ameliorating, improving and adjusting - as a part of politics and of society more generally. They do not have a naive view of the positivist political possibilities of architecture, but rather see its political and social relations as a fundamental constituent. In their own words "We are interested in an architecture that is an active participant in the actions, movements and conversations that form society.” So their work has a beautiful capacity to be read in high and low terms. It is engaging playful and rigorously resolved. It is participatory in its gestation and draws its ideas from a deep understanding of history. It is frugal in its specification and robust and joyful in its making. They write, design buildings and public spaces and research. So their research will range from the value of the pub as a social infrastructure to cheat guides to permitted development to allow people modify their own places in confidence. Their website is a great respository of all of this, and is well worth some time - to engage with their essays and see their projects. All are welcome, so bring up a beer from the bar and see you in the atrium. http://dk-cm.com/ —— Credits: Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London www.kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Heba ElSharkawy Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with Professor Jonathan Sergison about his work as a writer, an educator, and architect. Jonathan established Sergison Bates Architects together with Stephen Bates in the mid-1990's, and the practice quickly gained a reputation for the manner with which it could find meaning in the actualities of contemporary construction, and in the care with which they read and articulated contextual readings of place. These sensibilities were already evident in a series of essays written by Jonathan and Stephen before the establishment of the practice, and this culture of writing continues with the collected essays released periodically in volumes entitled 'Papers'. The practice has garnered significant national and international acclaim - including the Schelling medal and the Tessenow Medal. In 2008 Jonathan was appointed as a Professor in the Accademia di Architettura Mendrisio, a post he continues to hold. He moved to Switzerland in 2012, and no directs the Zurich office of Sergison Bates. Teaching is essential to Jonathans practice, and the work of his studio in Mendrisio concentrates on continuities in urban culture, each semester focussing on a different city.

In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with Stephanie MacDonald Staphanie is a founding partner, with Tom Emerson, of the London based practice 6a. Their practice works from a deep reading of the sites they work on - a process that incorporates ecology, people and place as ways to build a narrative that guides the projects formation. The work has been published extensively including monographs from A+U and ElCroquis, and numerous awards including the Schelling Medal. In this rare conversation with Steph we talk about her route to architecture, the people who shaped her journey and how she practices now. What comes across recurrently is that there is no one route to the subject, and education is a not a system, but a form of becomming fueled by curiosity and care. https://www.6a.co.uk At the outset we mention the Drawing Matter Summer School - which is a free week long course for students 15-16 to experience a taste of an architecture education prior to making a decision to study it.

In this conversation Andrew Clancy speaks with the Belgian architect Kersten Geers. Kersten was educated at the University of Ghent and in ETSA Madrid, before setting up his practice (Office KGDVS) with his friend David Van Severen in 2002. This practice has from the start had a very clear position, with each project presenting itself as a typological study in a way - refined to an essential reading. Building its innovations from a close reading of history particular attention is paid to plan and form to allow each project possess a singular character. This work is intertwined with teaching and research as an essential part of the practice - which includes making publications on numerous architects from the point of view of the practice - including James Stirling, Aldo and Hanna Van Eyck, and Giancarlo di Carlo. Kersten is full Professor at the Accademia di Architettura Mendrisio, and both he and David are visiting Professors at Harvard GSD. https://officekgdvs.com —— Credits: Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London www.kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Heba ElSharkawy Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with Dr Anna Minton. Anna investigates and writes about the politics shaping our cities. In particular she tracks how certain forms of global capital are increasingly informing more and more of what makes their fabric. Streets, squares and housing are now frequently being shaped by pressures that have little consideration of the needs of the vast majority of their citizens. Her two books 'Ground Control' and 'Big Capital' are essential reading (click on the link to her website below to buy copies). She lucidly makes visible the impact of policies, regulation and disinterest on the populations of cities, and calls for an engagement with politics to seek a reaffirmation of the states role in building social housing, among other measures, as a vital part of the social contract. Her new book, forthcoming in 2026 will take an even more ambitious frame - encompassing cities across the world. https://www.annaminton.com —— Credits: Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London www.kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Heba ElSharkawy Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew Clancy speaks with the Belgian architect Jo Taillieu. Jo is Professor of Architecture in EPFL Lausanne, and runs his practice, Jo Taillieu Architecten, from his home town of Ghent. He established this practice in 2004, and between 2009 and 2019 worked in partnership with Jan deVylder and Inge Vynck. In all his work, in collaboration or sole practice, Jo brings an open and curious sensibility, based on a close reading of each site and its potentials. This attitude allows him to see ordinary things anew, and to propose lyrical and playful works which are expressive of their conceptual and physical assembly. This is not collage, but a synthesis in which each component is vividly present, and time is expressly held in its articulation of how things have been made, adjusted or kept. https://jotaillieu.com —— Credits: Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London www.kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Heba ElSharkawy Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew Clancy talks with Professor Marilyne Andersen. Marilyne is a physicst by training, but her first love was architecture. Her research has allowed her to develop a particular expertise in daylight, which has allowed her to work in a very architectural way in her various laboratories. She explores the effect of the built environment on daylight, and on how this impacts on human behaviours, mood and well being. In this conversation we range widely, exploring her early work, and how she came to set up the Daylight Lab in MIT, and then the LIPID lab in EPFL. We also hear about her time as Dean at EPFL, and the work and strategies she deployed in managing a vast faculty. https://people.epfl.ch/marilyne.andersen?lang=en —— Credits: Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Heba ElSharkawy Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew interviews Andreas and Samuel from Stockholm based Hermansson Hiller Lundberg Architects. Their practice is concerned with the capacity for contemporary construction for expression - and they explore structure and a close reading of context to make characterful and beautifully considered work at a wide variety of scales. The work speaks eloquently of our time, and draws on deep traditions in architecture - seeking expressive qualities in contemporary construction techniques. Here they speak about how they balance this careful ‘present tense’ aspect of their work, against the necessary vagaries of construction today. https://www.hhl.se —— Credits: Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Simon Henley interviews Milinda Pathiraja. Milinda's is a director and co-founder of Robust Architecture Workshop, a practice based in Sri Lanka, and concerned with developing new means for architecture to operate there. The term 'Robust' is key, its meaning to Milinda representing architectures ability to develop a resilience by a clear sighted engagement with the world - eschewing the brittleness that comes from autonomous conversations, and making its languages from a bottom up approach, one with tolerance at its heart. Here tolerance is a calling to an architecture which is sited in the specifics of the architects context, and the needs of the project - encompassing material behaviours but also much more, including the lives and futures of those engaged with its making. https://www.facebook.com/robustarchitectureworkshop/ —— Credits: Register is the Research Group in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Simon Henley Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Nana Biamah Ofosu and Andrew Clancy interview Shelley McNamara and Yvonne Farrell of Grafton Architects. Nana is a tutor in the Kingston School of Art, leading studies into precedent and the lessons found in territorial Ghanaian architecture as part of her Second Year Studio. Grafton Architects are the current Pritzker Laureates, an accolade that arrives as they appear to be gathering pace with a remarkable series of university buildings completed in the last few years, and more on the way. At the heart of Graftons practice is a concern for the human aspects of architecture - how it is made, how it affects those who use it, and how it speaks to the society that it forms a part of. In this discussion Shelley and Yvonne discuss their education, those critical first few projects, and how they have navigated their career since then. They reflect on the sensibilities that underlie their remarkable buildings, and what they see as key challenges facing the disipline today. https://www.graftonarchitects.ie/ —— Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy / Nana Biamah Ofosu Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

Simon is an educator and a practitioner, and has written several books about architecture, most recently ‘Redefining Brutalism’ - which seeks to redefine the subject beyond style, and to capture its sensibility as a living language of architecture -0 encompassing robustness at its core. Today their explorations into the language of architecture are being teased out via a series of remarkable housing projects, one of which (Chadwick Hall) was shortlisted for the Stirling Prize (the UKs highest award for architecture) last year. http://henleyhalebrown.com/ —— Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

Cathy Haley started her professional career with the art and architecture collaborative muf, moved on to doing remarkable housing projects as a founding partner of Riches Hawley Mikhail, and now works with Public Practice to embed critical thinking about context and character into the development plans of a series of towns. Wherever she has worked she has brought a clarity of insight, valuing the unseen and the overlooked along with more obvious aspects, to make a singular contribution in each place. This is true also of her work as an educator - in which she seeks to tease out her students ability to see in an enabling fashion - both for their own careers as architects, and in relation to how they make work. She is a winner of the RIBA Stirling prize, RIBA Rome prize and numerous other accolades. http://www.cathyhawley.co.uk/about.php —— Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

The work of the unit is a good way to understand some of the interests of 31/44 as a practice. There is a careful approach to understanding and researching context, and using this to inform their projects. This contextual read is not one grounded in a literal formal or material transposition, but in a sensibility which allows contextual work stand in sympathy both with its own time, and the histories of the sites they work on. As such their works are to an extent a distillation and a refinement of particular observations, a retelling of a story of how the city has been made. https://www.3144architects.com --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Laura Evans / Matt Wells Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew Clancy interviews Shiela O'Donnell and John Tuomey of O'Donnell and Tuomey. John and Shiela are as much educators as architects, and this conversation roves freely between conversations about schools, and their own work in practice. It is clear that these two worlds are interconnected and interreliant in a profound way in their lives. The work in both places has overlaps - not least a concern with close reading of site and context, and an investment in drawing out what the ‘utter’ aspect of a project might be through conversation and drawing. We talk through their recent retirement from UCD - the school they were taught in and in turn taught into for most of their lives, and how this might mark a new chapter on a number of levels. We also hear what it was like working for Stirling, the humanity of the man, and his insistence on the value of ‘the act itself’ of being an architect. We do hope you enjoy the conversation. http://odonnell-tuomey.ie --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

Circumstances dictated that the interview had to be recorded in a hotel lobby, and the backgrounders noise is quite distracting - but we felt it was useful to put out anyway. Bruno is working with Siza on a project here in the UK, and grabbed this time during Sizas most recent visit. In this conversation they talk about practice, Sizes early frustrations with small projects, how current jobs interrelate in the office, and the value of Kenneth Frampton in highlighting work from around the world, including Portugal, which might otherwise have been overlooked. ———— Credits Register is the Reseach Group for the Departmetn of Architecture & landscape.

In this episode Andrew Clancy and Laura Evans interview Alice Casey and Can Deegan of TAKA Architects in Dublin. Over their 10 years of practice Alice and Cian have designed a series of remarkable buildings, which clearly illustrate the concerns of the office. Most obvious there is a recurrent engagement with context, making buildings which are grounded in the forms and materials of their physical situation. There is more at work than this - most intriguingly a continual engagement with the potentials for architecture to accrete meaning through its engagement as a protagonist in ritual and habit. Here they draw their references very widely, most particularly from a series of lengthy journeys they made in the first few years of their practice. Here we see a robust territorial architecture engaging with global conversations, making something new and yet of its place. www.taka.ie --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Phillips Interviewer: Andrew Clancy and Laura Evans Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Louise Koopmanns and Andrew Clancy interview Gunter Vogt, the eminent landscape designer, and Chair of Landscape at ETH Zurich. He views landscape design not as an autonomous totalling discipline, but as a careful reassembly of the world. In his methods he stresses the productive tension between the necessary subjectivity of the human condition, and the availability of scientific analysis and process. In speaking with his students he observes that a field trip can at once be a sensorial immersion and a scientific appraisal, and posits a work method that includes space for digression, memory and dreaming along with rigorous engagement with the realities of contemporary ecology and construction. A detail in this context can speak about both the personal and the political. This ability for multiple scales of thinking to be manifest at once allows space for digression and a radical subjectivity in the design process - resulting in landscapes which are contextual and surreal, robust and intimate. In the beautiful landscapes he and his practice have made with collaborators such as Herzog deMeuron we can see the results of this humanistic compulsion, and in this conversation we tease out how he developed as a designer, and how he sees this role evolving in the face of contemporary pressures. https://www.vogt-la.com/en Kingston is one of the few schools in these islands which offers landscape architecture alongside architecture - we do so because we are keenly aware that the built environment is more than buildings, and believe that students of both disciplines benefit from this context. --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Course Leader Landscape: Kristof Fatsar Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Interviewer: Andrew Clancy and Louise Koopmans Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Kate Ivinson and Dan Ryder-Cook both interview the London architect Amin Taha. Amin’s work, and that of the practice he established (Groupwork) is heavily invested in exploring the potentials for contemporary technology to allow a re-engagement with materiality, ornament and civic expression - particularly in the making of facades. This approach, at once playful and rigorous, has resulted in work which is beautifully detailed, robustly made and historically situated. In this conversation Amin teases out the underlying ideas of the practice, including the way that memory, and misremembering, have always been the way our cities have been made - placing his work in this tradition of continuity. Kate and Dan were both students of the course when they made this interview, and they bring an incisive lens on the work which makes for enjoyable listening. ———— Credits Register is the Reseach Group for the Departmetn of Architecture & landscape.

In this interview Andrew Clancy and Judi Farren Bradley interview Julian HARRAP. Julian is arguably the most distinguished conservation architect working in Europe today. In the work he completed with David Chipperfield on the Neues Museum he opened up a conversation about memory, authenticity and the abiding meaning of architecture in a highly nuanced manner. This work is of interest far beyond conservation circles of course, and I think it fair to say that this building has been one of the key works of the last 20 years in shaping the culture of architecture on our continent. Our contemporary understanding of bricolage, fragment and inflection are all wrapped up and tested in various ways in this building. There is a radicality here, one which is perhaps less immediately evident (but no less present) in other projects by Julian and in this conversation he takes us through the challenge of conservation - which in his view is never a simple dogmatic agenda, but another layer of architectural thinking.

In this episode Andrew Clancy and Matt Phillips interview Prof Elly Mosayebi The practice she runs with her partners (Ron Edelaar and Christin Idebitzin) works from a deep understanding of the plan as a source of invention in the making of beautifully resolved housing. By a first principle interrogation of inhabitation and occupation they can arrive at plans which frequently eschew conventional geometries - to make characterful, resonant, architecture which is deeply human, gently inhabitable and yet steeped in a deep architectural knowledge. This is a rich, complex architecture - one which validates the discipline of architecture in its fullest sense - showing how a deep understanding of the history of architecture, and care in its making can make genuinely beautiful places for people to live. Elly is a professor in the ETH and there is a strong link between the teaching and research she conducts there with her students and the evolving nature of her practice. In this conversation we talk about this, and how she sees this developing in the future. --------- Credits: Registegr is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Phillips Interviewer: Andrew Clancy and Matt Phillips Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

It is by no means obvious that a collection could be made which celebrates the doubts of creative production, and which reiterates the changing yet abiding value of the drawing as a site of critical enquiry. In the archives at shatwell, and in the many publications, exhibitions and educational programmes run by the archive there is a clear voice - one which is scholarly and playful, one that understands the collection as a living engine of thinking. Next week you are all welcome to join us in Kingston for the Frascari Symposium - which we are hosting here on the 27th and 28th July 2019. You are all welcome to join us as we explore the secret lives of drawings and models. http://kingstonarchitecture.london/frascari-symposium-iv-the-secret-lives-of-architectural-drawings-and-models-kingston-architecture-and-landscape-june-2019/ --------- Credits: Registegr is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Philips Interviewer: Andrew Clancy and Mary Johnson Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew Clancy interviews Fergus and Edmund of Feilden Fowles Their practice is one which foregrounds craft, and the formal histories of the language of industrial and agricultural structures as a site for discovery and invention. Their hands on approach is probably most celebrated in their own studio, located as part of a campus of structures for Waterloo city farm. Despite the contingencies of budget (the client being a charity) and the need for the buildings to be rapidly designed, made (and potentially moved in time) they worked with and elemental architecture and frugal materials to make a wonderfully considered series of buildings and spaces. This nimbless means that their investment in the details does not preclude larger work, and indeed they are working with contemporary industrial sites - such as their recently completed food production site in Somerset. Here they work with the language of contemporary industrial structures, but adjust these by addition, developing a figurative exterior linked to subtly tuned interiors. The interview goes through the evolution of their practice, and their views on architecture and education today. --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Philips Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

—————— Before introducing this episode a quick mention of the free summer school for pre A- level students we run each summer with our partners. I talk a bit about this in the introduction - if you know anyone who might be interested there is more information here. http://kingstonarchitecture.london/architectural-drawing-summer-school-24-29-august-2019/ ———————- In this episode Andrew Clancy interviews Caroline Voet. Caroline joins us from Belgium where she works as an architect and an academic. She is rare, in that she excels in both practice and thinking about practice. The work of her practice, (Voet en de Brabandere, where she works in partnership with Leen de Brabandere) has a rigour in both formal and tectonic investigations - making buildings and interiors which are elegently conceived and beautifully resolved with their contexts. - http://www.voetendebrabandere.be As an academic Caroline is perhaps best known for her wonderful book (A House for the Mind) about the work of the architect Dom Hans Van der Lann, most particularly his seminal Rosenberg Abbey. This building is a continual touchstone for us here in Kingston, and Caroline’s research reveals its place in the thinking of its architect, and its abiding value as a building to draw lessons from today. - https://www.domusweb.it/en/architecture/2017/10/09/a-house-for-the-mind-explores-the-world-surrounding-the-philosophy-of-the-dutch-architect-monk-dom-hans-van-der-laan.html --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Philips Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Andrew Clancy interviews Ryan Kennihan. Ryan is an architect, based in Dublin, and is leader of the thesis year in TU Dublin (formerly DIT Dublin School of Architecture) there. His practice is concerned with making buildings which act in continuity with typologies, forms and materials found in their physical context. These are translated through engagement with contemporary tectonics to make an expressive architecture in which structure, weathering and craft are considered and carefully calibrated. In this conversation we talk through his journey to this point, and the ideas fueling his practice today. http://www.rwka.com --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London http://kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Philips Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy Music: Poddington Bear - Rainbow Architecture…

In this episode Nana Biamah Ofasu interviews Marius Grootveld. Marius is a partner, along with Jantje Engels of the practice Veldwerk. Established in 2015, their practice is part of a broader movement in Flanders of practices interested in making work in weaving narratives from the contexts they are asked to make work. Representation, typology and precedent act as a site for investigation, and discovery. Restlessly passionate about architecture in its widest sense Marius also pursues this interest in is work as an educator and curator. In this work he both seeks to provoke a discourse, and to shine a light on lesser known voices in our discipline - be they practicing today or a precedent from many centuries ago. http://mariusgrootveld.nl --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London http://kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Philips Interviewer: Nana Biamah Ofasu Editor: Andrew Clancy…

In this episode Ellis Woodman interviews Timothy Smith and Jonathan Taylor of Smith Taylor Architects. Ellis is director of the architecture foundation, and a valued thinker and writer about architecture. Jonathan and Timothy established their practice in 2010. In their practice and their teaching they investigate classicism, and its potential as a living language of architecture. They engage with this way of thinking, not through nostalgia or sentimentality, but with criticality. This is unusual among contemporary classicists, many of whom seek to make perfected classical fragments, solely by engagement with the classical treatises, and an elitist approach to brief and budget. This hermeticism misses the point that architecture gains its value by abrasion against the forces which bring it into being and shape it, be they technical, economic, legislative etc. It is in this friction between idealised and realisable that a conversation emerges that allows architecture to act as a carrier of cultural knowledge, and allow with an empathetic connection with individuals, and even of society more generally. In the work of Smith Taylor we see this conversation at work. Here classism is a living, malleable fabric, one informed as much by contemporary thoughts as by adherence to the orders. In writing this I am thinking of the columns, (as much brick piers as classical order) on a modest rear garden extension, the cleverly tuned plan of a competition entry for a chapel in Dublin or the exuberant modelled soffits which they use in many projects. Here the nature of contemporary construction allows (indeed requires) an engagement with the classical language in a new way. http://www.smithandtaylorllp.com/index.php/site --------- Credits: Register is the Research Centre in the Department of Architecture & Landscape at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University London http://kingstonarchitecture.london Head of Department: Mary Johnson Producer: Laura Evans / Andrew Clancy Register: Christoph Lueder; Matt Wells; Matt Philips Interviewer: Andrew Clancy Editor: Andrew Clancy…
