REGISTER - JO TAILLIEU

Register - Architecture & Landscape - Un pódcast de Architecture & Landscape Kingston University London

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
