‘Architecture is not Western’ is an invitation to change the way we think about architecture, to shift our gaze away from the standardised image of the city and discover the diversity of architecture around the world.
Each episode explores this otherness, using Central African architecture as a case study. Some original architectural developments that took place before industrialisation era will make us aware of other ways of conceiving space.
The aim is to create cities where everyone can find their place through the inclusion of diverse cultural characteristics, a source of lasting enrichment for all.
