Tabitha Pope is an architect and lecturer, with a specialism temporary structures and participatory archiecture and a passion for work that sits at the boundary of art and architecture. In this episode, produced in support of International Women’s Day, my colleague Lucy Barber interview Tabatha about: What is participatory design and what benefits does it offer us in the climate emergency. Challenging power in order to make architecture a more inclusive space for all under-represented groups, not just women. How her practice of carpentry allows her to intervene in the design process in a different way. Establishing a nature connection to help designers and citizens alike tackle the biodiversity crisis. Stepping into a space of vulnerability in design in order to do things differently. Creating spaces for joy and encounter to tackle loneliness and build resilience in communities. ...And lots more.
