Desert Island Buildings

1 day ago
Desert Island Buildings is an adaptation of the seminal BBC Radio 4 Show Desert Island Discs, but instead asks our guests to share “the architecture of their lives” by selecting five buildings that are most relevant to their work, have altered their design approach, or that have left them baffled, inspired, angry, or lost for words.  The show reveals how our guest’s background education, culture, and upbringing have shaped their identity and their approach to architecture. https://desertislandbuildings.earth/
