Growing Gaia talk part 1 | Therme Art | Dezeen

Diébédo Francis Kéré, Cyrill Gutsch and others discussed how architects and designers can tackle the challenges of the anthropocene in a panel discussion hosted by Therme Art and Dezeen.

Held during Gallery Weekend Berlin, the talk is part of Therme Art’s Wellbeing Culture Forum, a talks programme exploring the role of culture, art, design and architecture in promoting health and wellbeing in urban populations.

Entitled Growing Gaia, the talk was the second in a programme of events happening from 11-13 September at the König Galerie in Berlin.

The panel discussed the Gaia Hypothesis, formulated by American biologist Lynn Margulis and British chemist James Lovelock in the 1970s, which suggests that all living organisms co-evolve with their environment, forming a system that maintains the conditions for life on Earth.

The panellists discussed the ways in which the Gaia Hypothesis can inform architects, designers, artists and scientists of solutions to the crises facing humanity in the anthropocene era.
