S02 Episode 07: Juhani Pallasmaa on experiencing architecture through art and sensing, the mind-body continuum and architecture as a gift


In Episode 7 of Series 2 Finnish architect and former Professor  of Architecture at the Helsinki University of Technology, Juhani Pallasmaa, talks to Doerte Weig. He explains how art and multi sensory awareness lie at the heart of architecture, based on vision and sensing not as automatic mechanisms but cultural matters we learn during childhood, and how seeing the mind and body as a continuum and architecture as a verb not a noun is central to his teaching, practice and research.
