Barcelona’s Uninhibited Inhabitation Vol 6; Honolulu’s Potential to Learn from Barcelona’s Caring for Communal Cooperatives for Democratic Dwelling in Decency (Humane Architecture). The host for this show was Martin Despang. The guest was Jay Fidell.
The discussion was: Housing as a most basic human[e] right is playing an increasingly predominant role in planet and people (we the) peacefulness of exploding geopolitical dimensions. After having to begin this show once again depressing this time with Kamehameha School’s Stanford Carr’s Kahuina Kaka’ako as with this no Holistic Housing in Honolulu, Barcelona respectively continues to wow us. Honolulu and Barcelona are both maritime metropolises with many similarities particularly through the roof cost of living under comparable climatically privileged circumstances. The past, this and the following episodes will continue to discuss the shared by both cities upmost challenge of truly (in Barcelona) vs just named so (in Honolulu) social affordable inclusive housing. The show continues to base its discourse on the related site observations by Jay Fidell in still totalitarian Barcelona in 1965 right before coming to Honolulu, Martin Despang in 2021 and 2024 with the coverage of this and the following episodes. Plus most importantly by Pedro A. Capriata who has lived in Barcelona since 2004 and received his doctorate degree in history and theory of architecture from its Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. He is a native of Peru where he studied architecture at the Ricardo Palma University and teaches besides his working with Guiding Architects Barcelona. This show lifts up the spirit with Vancouver’s powerful perimeter block buildings and Barcelona’s thrilling transitional housing block for 100 house-/homeless women, seniors and socially challenged in temporary cargo steel.
The takeaway was: Honolulu’s potential learning curve from Barcelona’s literally and figuratively cool cooperatives and sunny smiling social sheltering.
