Video: Talkback: Massimiliano Fuksas
In this interview, architect Massimiliano Fuksas explains some of his views on architecture and design practices, providing an insight into the ideas and ethics underlying his designs. He emphasises the importance of an “author” (“auteur”) conceiving a concept and following it through to completion, disapproving of the current trend to divide the design process up into separate tasks performed by specialised individuals. He describes the design ambitions behind his scheme “The Cloud” (“La Nuvola”). Fuksas talks about his Nelson Mandela Institute in Abuja, Nigeria and considers the importance of theory and ethics to architecture.
