AW:和别建筑师相比,你似乎走了一条非常与众不同的建筑师职业道路,是什么促使你走上这条路,以及为什么你会选择走这样的一条路?
我想最重要的原因和我的童年有关。我在芬兰北部拉普兰的一个村庄里度过我的童年。我的童年和自然非常亲近,我的周围住着在森林里永久定居的居民,而那些在北极苔原里居住的萨米游牧民也时常会拜访村庄。夏天的时候我和小伙伴们一起造树屋,冬天我们就一起用雪造房子。
Last year, Finnish architect Marco Casagrande won the European Prize for Architecture, which honors architects whose work contributes not just to the built environment, but also to humanity more generally. In the AW Interview, Casagrande locates his transition from traditional to critical architecture praxis both geographically--a childhood in the Finnish countryside--and ideologically, asserting the ultimate reality of nature. His encounter with Chinese culture by way of Taiwan has also desicively shaped his practice. Casagrande advocates 'urban acupuncture' in post-industrial cities. In keeping with theories of Chinese traditional medicine, urban acupucturists treat localized blockages in order to bring relief to the entire city-organism. The goal is to catalyze social change through smallscale interventions.
