227: Should we stop building new buildings? | Nicolai Bo Andersen (KADK) & Søren Nielsen (Aarhus School of Architecture)

Should we stop building new buildings? 🤔Today I talk with architects Nicolai Bo Andersen (professor KADK) and Søren Nielsen (ex-partner at Vandkunsten and professor at Aarhus School of Architecture) about whether we should stop building and focus on transformation. We explore sustainability, ethics in architecture, and why it’s time to rethink our impact. We talk reflecting on the recent ByggestopBevægelsen - posing an important question whether the global north should still build new buildings. We discuss:✅ Understanding and reclaiming sustainability✅ Rethinking the building industry – should we stop building?✅ Will commercial architects lose jobs? ✅ The social dimension of architecture✅ Craftsmanship and the future of renovationDid you enjoy the episode?You can buy me a coffee here: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/urbcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More about the podcast:Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠urbcast.pl⁠⁠⁠⁠Social media: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/urbcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music: ⁠spear_oh⁠
