Summary

This week on the Brick & Wonder podcast, we are joined by Nigerien architect Mariam Issoufou.

The conversation explores Mariam’s journey into architecture, the assumptions she has challenged along the way, and how her work pushes back on dominant ideas of modernity and progress. Shaped by her contemporary perspective on climate change and post-colonial identity, we discuss why architecture is not neutral, and why meaningful design must respond to economic, cultural, and climatic realities, not just aesthetics.

This episode is brought to you by MADERA, specialists in handcrafted wood floors and Seamless Wood Design® solutions.
