Description

This week's episode features a conversation with the super insightful Indu Chakravarthy. We go around the world in this episode as she discusses her upbringing, education, and work experiences. It's a fun conversation that might make you want to start traveling again!Building Spotlight: Academic Block of the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore by Balkrishna Vithaldas (B.V. ) Doshi - winner of the 2018 Pritzker Architecture PrizeLinks:Indu's Linktr.eeTangible Remnants on InstagramTangible Remnants WebsiteLinkedTr.ee for resourcesGabl Media NetworkSarah Gilberg's MusicBio: Indu ChakravarthyCharacterized by an earnest desire to understand and attempt just about everything, Indu is a “creative generalist” in the best sense of the phrase: with hands-on experience with a wide range of arts and processes, she is passionate about seeking joy and beauty in the world. This pursuit has helped cultivate her perspective that there are many ways of being and a multitude of right answers. Her experiences push her to be more judicious and responsible in her use of resources, and to communicate with more empathy. Sustainability is of paramount importance in her work - fueled by decaf, bad puns and bollywood, she uses her various multi-hyphenate oxymoronic "ways of being" (global-local-multicultural-recycli-crafting, peer-sharing-community-loving-technology-testing, architect-urbanist-preservationist) to chase the pipe dream of a human scaled, equitable, joyful, playful, wonderful multi modal transit-oriented, urban, zero-net-carbon built environment. **Some of the links above may be Amazon affiliate links, which means that if you choose to make a purchase, I will earn a commission.

Historic preservation and sustainability are not mutually exclusive. They are actually two sides of the same coin: both involve buildings and both are about our collective future. Such historic buildings are also created by people in a specific place in time and are subject to the cultural prejudices of race and gender. These buildings are the Tangible Remnants of people who shaped the world and can serve as temporal touchpoints for future generations. Join sustainable preservation architect, Nakita Reed, as she explores the interconnectedness of architecture, preservation, sustainability, race and gender. You’ll learn about people, buildings, and policies that made a historical impact and hear from women and BIPOC practitioners who are impacting the built environment today.
