S3E12: Vishaan Chakrabarti

Vishaan Chakrabarti is the founder of Practice for Architecture and Urbanism, which is working on projects from Brooklyn to Mongolia. He sees architecture as

a form of writing in the world. And in order to write you have to read. And so we take a lot of time reading the places in which we're designing.
