Urban Design and New Traditional Building Technologies, a lecture by Thomas Albrecht

As part of the Nortman Lecture Series and the Urbanism and Architecture: A New German Synthesis Series, Berlin architect Thomas Albrecht joins us to talk about traditional building culture and its benefits to both sustainability in urban planning projects and to the adaptation of traditional craft techniques. Projects such as the reconstruction of the Berlin Palace or the Museum Barberini in Potsdam will be vivid examples of this approach.
