#3 - Michael Diamant, New Traditional Architecture: fighting the status quo for more beautiful environments, Arkitekturupproret, activism & social media

1 hour 21 minutes

Michael Diamant is founder of New Traditional Architecture & Urbanism and has been a very vocal critic of contemporary architecture and planning practices. His fight for more beauty and sanity / common sense in urban planning is being heard: through the platform of an acquaintance that has grown explosively, 'Arkitekturupproret' or 'Architecture Uprising', he has attracted the attention of many Scandinavian media. The Architecture Uprising has caused many city councils to listen better to the architectural desires of the population. In this episode we talk about the impact he has achieved and how the platform came to be, as well as how the people are now getting empowered to voice their discontent about what gets built - often against their will.
