For Between Us, the second season of the Architectures of Planetary Well-Being podcast, we partnered with KoozArch, a research-driven studio and digital magazine exploring architecture and design beyond their built forms. The phrase “between us” implies a secret, something kept safe, reserved just for those present. The concepts explored in Between Us are, alternatively, meant to be shared, but they’re indeed explored in intimate dialogues between practitioners who might not have known each other previously and then found commonality—and even collaboration—through these conversations.
In exchanges guided by Federica Zambeletti and Shumi Bose (KoozArch's founder and chief editor, respectively), fourteen cultural practitioners, meeting each other across generational and geographical distances, discussed architecture, storytelling, language, material, science fiction, landscapes, tenderness, and memory. A common thread emerged: the need for collaboration, friendship, accessibility, and imagination in the reimagining of a more just world. In working toward a state of planetary well-being, we must cross boundaries between artistic mediums and territorial borders alike—and reach for each other.

While graphic novelist and architectural designer Sabba Khan’s work poignantly explores her own history growing up in East London, and Federica Fragapane uses painterly illustration to visualize data, in this conversation, they find the overlaps between their respective practices, and discuss the lived experiences and choices shaping even the most objective information. They remind us to use our own voices to help build the future, and frame their work as invitations—for readers to understand, relate to, and find themselves within it—and consider how all data is embodied by the people who comprise it.
