This conversation series is an investigation on the meaning of diversity and representation, as well as the potentials of radically inclusive architectural education and practice in Norway. We talked to architects, designers, artists, human geographers, students and educators about systemic discrimination and oppression in the field of architecture, to then launch a call to action: to deconstruct and rethink, to create change and move toward a more equitable architecture. // Made by Safe Space Collective, i.c.w.

Episode 6: A queer practice of architecture
<p>As an open end to this cycle of critical dialogue and exchange, we met with three final guests including architects Eirik Stokke and Espen Heggertveit, and architect and teacher Alma Oftedal, to talk about “a queer practice of architecture” as a radically inclusive way of thinking and making in order to move toward a more equitable architecture. We delved into how to demystify the dogma and challenge the normativity in our profession through the conscious act of queering architecture. This conversation was moderated by Safe Space Collective members Bui Quy Son and Paul-Antoine Lucas, and recorded on June 2, 2021.</p>

Episode 5: Environmental justice and the preservation of Sápmi
<p>We invited Astrid Fadnes – architect and writer, and Joar Nango – Sámi architect and artist. We questioned the relationship between architecture and the Sápmi land as well as the environment as a whole, by examining the tourism infrastructure project Arctic Center in Northern Norway. We then discussed the impact of Statsbygg, the Norwegian Directorate of Public Construction and Property, and its ignorance of Sámi culture and local residents in general. As architecture is both a gesture of erasure and creation, we need to understand the context in which we build in order not to perpetuate environmental injustice. This conversation was moderated by Safe Space Collective members Paul-Antoine Lucas and Armelle Breuil, and recorded on May 26, 2021.</p>

Episode 4: The right to housing
<p>For this conversation, we invited Ole Pedersen, social entrepreneur; Hanna Asefaw, activist and student in human geography; and Alf-Jørgen Schnell, human geographer. We stressed the urgent need for a radical shift in the way we think about housing by bringing forward the possible establishment of a not-for-profit housing sector in Norway. In a deregulated liberal housing market, the end-user is being ignored, cities’ development is completely profit-driven, and architects are the last to complain about it in public debates. Today, there is a window of opportunity for change, hence it is time we all rally and voice our opinions, and use our knowledge and skills to benefit the common good. This conversation was moderated by Safe Space Collective members Paul-Antoine Lucas and Armelle Breuil, and recorded on May 21, 2021.</p>
