Critters as Cataylst
Season 2, Episode 1, Sep 24, 12:30 AM
The Catalyst podcast series unpacks clever design solutions in the built environment. Join host Tania Davidge in conversation with designers and field experts as they explore themes and issues that act as catalysts for creative design thinking.
In this episode, engineer Peter Standen from Partridge and architect Stuart Harrison from Harrison and White discuss how engineering and design can help to take care of our more than human friends.
When we think about design and architecture, we typically think about designing for people but what does it take to design for animals? What does it take to get a frog in the mood for romance? How do you move pregnant elephants safely and securely from A to B? And how can design help to rehabilitate raptors?
