Tom Kundig: Making big things into little things | #talkdesign #podcast #thoughtfuldesign

At its core, architecture is a beautiful mix of logic and human adaptation. My guest on TALKdesign, Tom Kundig (@olsonkundig), brought up a grounding thought about the basic physics of what we do. He observed that humans are, at the end of the day, relatively weak creatures. The large issues of shelter and survival that our ancestors solved for generations always came down to one elegant equation: how do you take big, heavy things and break them down into little things that we can actually carry and manipulate?

It is a perspective that strips away the pretension sometimes found in design. When we approach a building not just as an artistic statement, but as a practical problem to be solved simply and elegantly, we connect with a long lineage of human craft and engineering.
