Ep 28 — Kristian Hoff-Andersen on Classicism, Queerness, Biophilia and Timeless Architecture | The Cave of Apelles

The young architect Kristian Hoff-Andersen explains the appeal of classical architecture.
Is it good because it is «traditional», or because it emulates nature and thus relates to human beings?
Do we like it because it is “old-fashioned” or do we quite simply need timeless surroundings?
Hoff Andersen shares amazing success stories about newly made classical buildings — drawing on examples from around the world.

This conversation was hosted by Jan-Ove Tuv, and was produced by Bork S. Nerdrum, with assistance from Sebastian Salvo.
The centerpiece was a reproduction of Thomas Cole’s painting “The Architect’s Dream”
