Michael Diamant is founder of New Traditional Architecture & Urbanism and is a very vocal critic of Modernist architecture and planning. He has fought a long battle against the ugliness that results from Modernism in Sweden, but he is also getting more recognition abroad, with guest talks in various podcasts, getting articles in various magazines and even at the National Capital Commission in Ottawa, Canada.

This episode was recorded at the second edition of the Utrecht Summer School for Traditional Architecture and Urbanism, 'Let's Build a Beautiful City', which happened from July 17 to August 3, where Michael appeared as one of the lecturers.
