Arkitektpodden med Magnus Ravlo Stokke
Hvorfor er noen steder bra, mens andre er helt ræva? Hvorfor er noen hus fine og andre deprimerende? Hva skal til for å lage gode nabolag og steder man har lyst til å henge? Er det så innmari vanskelig? Jeg snakker med de som tegner, bygger, bestemmer, liker eller hater det vi omgir oss med og prøver å finne noen svar. Ny gjest i hver episode.

From Privilege to Purpose: YASMEEN LARI’s Journey as Pakistan’s First Female Architect
Yasmeen Lari shares the remarkable story of a girl growing up in a privileged society in post-war, colonial Pakistan, who chose to pursue a career in architecture — and became the country’s first female architect.
She went on to design award-winning, iconic buildings for the powerful and wealthy — but was haunted by a nagging sense that something was wrong.
Why dedicate her time, talent, and energy to serving those who already had everything, when millions of her fellow citizens lived in severe poverty?
This is the story of a successful woman who seemed to have it all — and who chose instead to help those who had nothing.
5,000 kilometers away from Pakistan, Yasmeen Lari visits Arkitektpodden in Oslo to share her journey…
… and why her fondness for French, crisp asparagus makes her doubt her own authenticity.
