Moshe Safdie Speaks At TED
Here is a description of the lecture given by Safdie from the TED website:
Looking back over a long career, architect Moshe Safdie digs deep into four extraordinary projects to talk about the unique choices he made on each building — choosing where to build, pulling information from the client, and balancing the needs and the vision behind each project. Sketches, plans and models show how these grand public buildings, museums and memorials, slowly take form.
Safdie, who once apprenticed under Louis Kahn, is the architect of the Vancouver Public Library, the United States Institute of Peace and the Kaufmann Center for the Performing Arts among others.
