Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The steely stillness of Skywood House
Q: How did your time at Foster and Partners shape Skywood's approach to legibility and landscape?
The shift from strict rule-bounded drawings to a more fluid, country-house-like concept helped me see architecture as a legible, simple, and landscape-integrated composition, where the site and the building form a single poetic entity.
The steely stillness of Skywood House
Q: Graham, can you tell us a little about your journey into architecture?
I started with a desire to be a painter, pursued architecture at Liverpool University after an early art interest, and gradually learned through work at Arup and Foster's, embracing a hands-on, experimental approach and the belief that form emerges from a rigorous, iterative process.
Can a building hold a conversation?
Q: How did Fehn approach the Storhamar Barn project in terms of time layers and intervention?
Fehn aimed to respect the ruin and create a museum that allows ongoing excavation and interpretation, using layered spatial interventions to reveal time layers while maintaining clarity and honesty in materiality.
Can a building hold a conversation?
Q: What drew Per Olaf to work with Sverre Fehn and how did Kahn influence this choice?
Per Olaf describes Fehn as a natural continuation of the intellectual lineage from Louis Kahn, with Kahn's teaching and philosophy providing a base for their collaboration and Per Olaf's own professional development.
Sverre Fehn's architecture of memory
Q: Did you have any other small design battles with Fehn regarding similar areas?
There weren't notable conflicts; the collaboration was generally harmonious and iterative, with Fehn guiding the overarching sketch and the team refining it together.
