Inclusion Talks (Ep. 1): Sustainability Doesn't Happen by Itself
In our new podcast series Inclusion Talks – A Universal Design Perspective we investigate and share stories of how we can collectively create truly inclusionary spaces - spaces that are successful in rethinking our shared spaces, inviting more people in – from physical spaces to AI and digital spaces. In our first episode we go straight to a fundamental question: What does it truly take to ensure
Unaffordables Ep. 3: 'Keys and Queues' with Olaf Grawert, Bent Madsen, Matthias Nordby, Camilla van Deurs and Line Thorup Schultz
Who gets access to housing when there is not enough to go around? In the final episode of Unaffordables, we move beyond construction and economics to explore the political and ethical questions at the heart of housing affordability. Should access to housing be determined by the market alone, or are alternative models needed to ensure fair and incdlusive cities? Moderated by Olaf Grawert (HouseEuro
Unaffordables Ep. 2: 'Forms & Footprints' with Sinus Lynge, Steffen Enersen Maagaard, Wietse de Vries, Valérie Vermandel and Mads Rude
Can we build our way out of the housing crisis without deepening the climate crisis? In this episode of Unaffordables, we look at the physical realities of creating affordable homes in a world where seven of the nine planetary boundaries have already been breached. From adaptive reuse and bio-based materials to investment models and regulation, the discussion explores how housing can be delivered
Unaffordables Ep. 1: 'Pulls & Pressures' with Finn Williams, Kath Scanlon, Olaf Grawert, Anne-Mette Boye and Lars Jensen
Why has housing become unaffordable in so many cities across Europe? In the first episode of Unaffordables, we explore the forces driving the housing crisis and the growing pressures on urban housing markets. As more people are drawn to cities, demand is increasingly shaped not only by residents, but also by tourism, short-term rentals, and international investment. Is the problem simply a lack of
Archive: Sharing The City With Microbes
Today we conclude our three-week dive back into Living With Other Species. A series exploring how to plan and live alongside other species in the cities of the future. With todays episode we turn our attention to the smallest and often most overlooked inhabitants of the city: microbes. From the soil beneath our feet to the materials that make up our buildings, microbial life shapes the health and
Archive: 'The City is a Garden' with Anna Aslaug, Skye Jin and Studio Coquille
Urban infrastructure does merely mean roads, pipes, and buildings. Soil, water flows, trees, and fungi are infrastructure too. This episode moves away from the idea that gardens belong at the edges of development or appear afterward as cosmetic additions. Instead, it asks whether the city itself can be understood as a form of cultivation: something living, maintained, and ecologically embedded rat

Archive: "Architecture is more than buildings in cities"
As debates about rural life resurface across Denmark, including in Altinget's highly recommended podcast Aftryk, the countryside is once again being cast as a political battleground. The debate is not new, but it is encouraging to see it begin to move beyond a long-standing assumption: that the countryside mainly matters insofar as it serves the urban environement or the agricultural industry. It

Many still assume that buildings must excite. They must capture attention, produce images, and offer experiences. Boredom is treated as failure. But this reveals a hidden intuition that human beings need constant stimulation to remain engaged. What if this intuition is wrong? This episode explores that question. It suggests that architecture has become entangled in a psychological economy of atten
Archive: "Convenience Is Not Progress" with anthropologist Jeanette Lykkegård
Modern life is built on a simple promise: the more comfortable, stable, and controlled our surroundings become, the better our lives will be. We insulate ourselves from weather, reduce friction in daily routines, and design spaces that are predictable and easy to navigate. Progress, in this view, means minimizing effort and exposure. But this logic may carry an unintended cost. This week, we retur

Beyond Waste with Tusca7
Waste: Is it just the inevitable detritus of human life, or a glaring sign of systemic inefficiency? Could waste be more than something to discard—perhaps even the spark for innovation and regeneration? Under the guidance of the non-profit association Tusca7, we unravel the tangled narrative of waste and its transformative potential. Co-founder Jeppe Kalnæs challenges the status quo, urging us to
Beyond the Urban Bias with Rural Agency
What if we are entrapped in an urban bias? What can we do to see things more nuanced? And what would happen if we stopped seeing the rural as merely a backdrop to urban ambition and instead recognized it as a space of life and living? In this episode of 10 Dogmas, we challenge the conventional lens of architectural thought and explore how reimagining the rural could reshape our approach to design,
Beyond Shallow Ecology with Skye Jin
In his thought-provoking book Taking the Country's Side, philosopher Sébastien Marot argues that the separation between agriculture and architecture represents the original schism in human habitation. This divide, he suggests, has led to a profound alienation from the natural world and a radical instrumentalization of nature—one of the root causes of today's climate and biodiversity crises. But wh
Beyond Anthropocentrism with Pavels Hedström
For years, human-centered design has been regarded as the ideal approach to problem-solving within design and architecture. But in a world facing complex environmental and social challenges, is it time to consider a new paradigm? Could a multi-centered or biocentric perspective better address the needs of our shared environment? Join Pavels Hedström from the studio Insxects as he explores the limi
Beyond Standardization with Superposition
The battle for the future of the building sector is often framed as a conflict over standards: between those who defend existing standards and those who demand new, green, and sustainable ones. But what if we challenged this premise? What if the logic of standardization is actually at the root of the problem? This is the starting point for the second episode of our new podcast series. Tune in to h
Exploring the Future of Danish Architecture with Kristoffer Lindhardt Weiss & Anne Beim
Over the past five years, several institutions have highlighted the rise of a new paradigm in Danish architecture. The Utzon Center has coined it "Super Danish," while Dagbladet Information refers to it as "a new subtlety in architecture." At CAFx, we have proposed the concept of an ecological turn—a shift towards holism, relational thinking, integration, and frugality. But how should we place thi
Beyond Urban Leftovers with with Alberto Roncelli
In recent years, Copenhagen has seen an intensification in the debate over urban expansion, with controversial projects such as Fælledby and Lynetteholmen at the forefront. Amid these discussions, there has been a growing focus on the potential and methods for increasing density within the existing cityscape. In 2017, a coalition of developers, construction companies, architects, and ecologists ur
