S7#17 🇺🇸🇬🇧 "Architecture as a Public Responsibility"

In this English-language episode of Com d’Archi, we present a focused synthesis of an in-depth interview with Julien Bargeton, President of the Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine, France’s national institution dedicated to architecture, heritage, and contemporary creation.Through his personal and professional journey, Julien Bargeton reflects on architecture as more than a technical field. He presents it as an artistic, social, and civic discipline—one that shapes our bodies, our daily lives, and the way societies understand themselves.This episode explores the mission of a major public cultural institution: making architecture accessible without simplifying it, encouraging dialogue with other art forms, and engaging with today’s urgent challenges, from ecological transition to the protection and reconstruction of heritage in times of conflict.An episode for listeners interested in architecture, culture, public institutions, and the powerful—often invisible—role of the built environment in shaping collective life.Read by Esther GreslinAudio production comdarchipodcastTeaser image © Denys Vinson / Inside the Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine___If you like the podcast do not hesitate:. to subscribe so you don't miss the next episodes,. to leave us stars and a comment :-),. to follow us on Instagram @comdarchipodcast to find beautiful images, always chosen with care, so as to enrich your view on the subject.Nice week to all of you !
