Architect and theorist, Patrik Schumacher, considers the various parameters for architectural practice today, in the second lecture of our ‘Architecture and Freedom’ season.
Patrik Schumacher is one of architecture’s foremost designers and polemicists. A director of Zaha Hadid Architects, which he joined in 1988, Schumacher is involved in all the practice’s projects, playing an active role in each phase of design development. He has taught at architecture schools across the world and has been co-director of the Design Research Laboratory at the Architectural Association since 1996. His writings have frequently appeared in print and across the media. In this lecture, part of our ‘Architecture and Freedom’ season, Schumacher reflects on the range of issues and agendas that ‘burden’ architecture in the twenty-first century.
