    And now he is the latest Pritzker Award (the most valuable prize in architectural discipline).
    Truly one of a kind, an inspiration.
    Every time I hear his talks my architectural passion gets stronger; I belive in my profession as a tool for change and not only as a mechanism for capital income.
    His work and buildings is a living example of this philosophy.
    Congratulations Master Keré and thank you for your example and teachings.

    I have deep respect for this gentleman.
    Since giving this TED Talk, Mr Kéré has won the Pritzker Prize. I’m delighted, because, yes, this is long-due personal recognition, and yes, because it’s the first time it’s been awarded to an African architect, but, most importantly, I’m delighted because Mr Kéré’s work represents a shift in the architectural profession towards a new set of values; community, inclusivity, locality, ecology, life transformation, sustainability, nature.
    Africa is leading now; the West needs to follow.

    • @patrickschafstein5848
      @patrickschafstein5848 6 месяцев назад

      Those set of values were already present in soviet architecture, or council housing in Europe from the 60s. Without ecology, etc, of course.

    • @aodhanofailain
      @aodhanofailain 6 месяцев назад +1

      @@patrickschafstein5848 With respect, no they were not. Both the examples you cite were top-down, centralised, paternalistic, bureaucratic impositions that often trampled on the aspirations of local networks and in many cases dispersed settled communities. I worked professionally in the early stages of social housing tenant participation in the UK in the 1980s and 1990s and can attest to how much local government of all political persuasions had treated their tenant communities with contempt up to that point. What Mr Kéré is doing is of a radically different nature.
