About this listen
In our first episode of the series, we sit down with German-based architect Kristina Egbers, founder of studio*k. Recorded in 2022, this conversation marks the inaugural episode of our initiative. Kristina shares her journey from thesis to practice, focusing on her design of a primary school in Harare, Zimbabwe. We touch on how her core design principles—People, Culture, Place, Material, and Climate—are embedded in her work, particularly in this project, shaping its connection to the local context and community.
We also dive into how her research on traditional building methods and cultural design patterns influenced the project, leading to constant adaptation of details during the construction phases. Tune in to hear how these principles and insights shaped the final outcomes.
