The Architecture of Place: In Conversation with Ben Bolgar

The 蜜桃传媒app, , and the are pleased to continue their collaboration with The Architecture of Place: In Conversation with..., a new series of interviews featuring three architects from different backgrounds and points of view: Marianne Cusato, Ben Bolgar, and Galina Tachieva. Over the three-part series, each speaker plays the role of both interviewer and interviewee. In each installment, one of the three architects interviews another about the influences, experiences, and projects that have led to their design perspective on the architecture of place. At the end of each session, students from partnering university departments pose additional questions to the speakers, followed by an open Q&A with attendees. The 蜜桃传媒app is excited to partner with the Kingston School of Art Department of Architecture and Landscape for this interview. Students from Kingston make a special appearance and provide guest questions for the interviewee.
