Form Follows Love (Building by Intuition – from Bangladesh to Europe and beyond) - Anna Heringer, Dominique Gauzin-Muller

According to Anna Heringer, “Beauty has nothing to do with money or finance, but everything to do with creativity and love”. With statements like this she clearly has her finger on the pulse of our time, judging by the packed lecture halls, international awards such as the 2007 Aga Kahn Award or the 2020 OBEL Award, and exhibitions at MoMA, MAM Sao Paulo, and the Venice Biennale. In Form Follows Love, Anna Heringer talks to author Dominique Gauzin-Müller about her career as an architect, her studies, her experiences during a workshop by Martin Rauch, her practice in the Global South, and current projects in the Global North. She shares with us the insight that clay is not only an environmentally friendly material, but in the best cases it can even trigger socially beneficial processes. * Essential text describing the work of Anna Heringer, an architect specialized in clay * How architecture can have a positive impact on the environment and society * Building with local resources to maintain ecological balance * Available in German, English, and French
