Planet and People Friendy Democritecture. The hosts for this show are Martin Despang and DeSoto Brown. The guest is Matt Noblett.

Previous Human[e] architecture shows have discussed the disciplinary and professional threat to democracy through autocracy / authoritarian architectural attitudes.

Based upon the introductory ‘Boston Behnisch Boost vol 1’ show this vol 13 one further introduces Behnisch Architekten as one of the most democratic practices of architecture based in Germany, which ventured into the USA offices in Los Angeles and Boston.

Boston office’s partner in charge Robert Matthew Noblett discusses the principles of practice of Behnisch Architekten in general and the Boston office in particular, based upon his background of education at MIT : Masters of Architecture and previous experience with skinny skyscraper architect Rafael Viñoly.
