This episode of Hearing Architecture is part of our continued collaboration with the Asia Pacific Architecture Festival otherwise known as APAF. The theme of the festival this year is "co-operate, co-design, and co-exist". In this episode, we're focusing on the word "co-exist" and how architects are bringing their clients and communities into the design process with them. Our guest in this episode is Brinda Somaya of SNK Architects in India who is a leader in an emerging form of participatory design that breaks down parts of the traditional hierarchy that separates architects from the end-users.
