Weekend Video: Liz Diller’s Groundbreaking Architecture

This is probably one of my favorite TED talks; I’ve watched it three times so far. Liz Diller (DS+R) talks about architecture, design and how it weaves itself into the surrounding environment, and sometimes creates its own environment.

Her talk is fascinating, but the pictures are even better – her renovation of Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center, and the breathtaking Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, among others. This is a 20-minute tour inside the mind of a brilliant architect, who solves complex problems of space, materials, gravity, clients. This is a real winner from the large and ever-growing library of intelligence curated by TED.
