World Entrepreneurship Day 15 APR 2011 - Inspiring Videos From TED Talk Series
04 Apr 2012
Post Comments
 

In commemoration with the WORLD ENTREPRENEURSHIP DAY, Glazette brings to you handpicked videos from the TED Talks series featuring renowned architects and designers who share their ideas and trends in Architecture.

 

Michael Pawlyn: Using nature's genius in architecture

How can architects build a new world of sustainable beauty? By learning from nature. At TEDSalon in London, Michael Pawlyn describes three habits of nature that could transform architecture and society: radical resource efficiency, closed loops, and drawing energy from the sun.


 


 

Rogier van der Heide: Why light needs darkness

Lighting architect Rogier van der Heide offers a beautiful new way to look at the world -- by paying attention to light (and to darkness). Examples from classic buildings illustrate a deeply thought-out vision of the play of light around us.

 


 

Moshe Safdie: What makes a building unique?

Looking back over a long career, architect Moshe Safdie digs deep into four extraordinary projects to talk about the unique choices he made on each building -- choosing where to build, pulling information from the client, and balancing the needs and the vision behind each project. Sketches, plans and models show how these grand public buildings, museums and memorials, slowly take form.

 


 

Thom Mayne: Architecture is a new way to connect to the world

Architect Thom Mayne has never been one to take the easy option, and this whistle-stop tour of the buildings he's created makes you glad for it. These are big ideas cast in material form.

 


 

Liz Diller: Architecture is a special effects machine

In this engrossing EG talk, architect Liz Diller shares her firm DS+R's more unusual work, including the Blur Building, whose walls are made of fog, and the revamped Alice Tully Hall, which is wrapped in glowing wooden skin.
