Dr. Jane Goodall, the famed primatologist and conservationist, who recently passed away recently at the age of 91, in a moving and inspiring interview. She shows both her down-to-earth human side and her larger-than-life in an interview meant to be published after her passing.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview in March 2025 with the understanding it would only be released after her death. This is her final message from it.

This week has again showcased the brilliance of our @WSofArchi students and colleagues! I worked with both 1st year and 2nd year M.Arch. students on their dissertation research, which was impressive for its depth and sophistication, under sage guidance from my great colleagues.

"There is no place on earth quite like India to re-arrange the furniture of the mind." I remember these words whenever I re-visit and re-discover #India, especially with my partner, who always brings a fresh perspective to all the amazing experiences we have. #MagicalMumbai!

Proud of my student, Roan Kitto at @WSofArchi, whose studio project "Stokes Craft"--created in partnership with @CroftTrust in #Bristol--was selected for publication in the international design magazine @Dezeen. Bravo, Roan, for crafting such elegance! bit.ly/3Zsqcsz

One of the best things about conferences is the constant opportunity to learn anew. As a long-time comparative urbanist, I was curious about the #RGSIBG24 sessions entitled "Comparing Digital Digitalizations." Highly informative presentation on "comparative platform urbanisms"!

The best scholarship is not only deeply critical and contributory but also profoundly human and even moving. A beautiful discussion with @michelelancione and a panel about his book, For a Liberatory Politics of Home, organized by @ColinMcFarlane3 at #RGSIBG24 #RGSIBG2024. Bravo!

Part of the magic of #SacreCoeur is the people who congregate just for a moment and then move on with their lives. #Paris July 2024.

#Paris is abound with special, and even sometimes magical, touches in #urbanism that extend far beyond the often rigid and formulaic design approaches in the #UK. Here in the courtyard of @SciencesPo, participants at the #aesop2024 conference gather for lunch. Image: @EKarimnia
