I absolutely LOVE Frank's architectures! His lay back personality and sense of humor are a + 😍
Beware! these kind of people are very unforgiving in their work/ They are up there because of this habit and not because of sense of humor
@@amitpanchal5229 omg so scary, being an actual human being instead of a govt programmed NPC with no type of human awareness other than capitalist greed.
There are many insights to life in this great time capsule. Thanks guys for sharing this journey of truth and transparency and why learning by doing is the only way to grow.
GREAT GUY. WONDERFULL SENSE OF HUMOUR. GENIUS ARCHITECT.
You are what's wrong with the world
Calling Gehry a genius architect is the same as calling Justin Bieber a musical prodigy
LOL you gotta love Frank Gehry! Hilarious interview!
A bit too relaxed when compared to other talks, but I did enjoy it. I really liked how Gehry encouraged people (clients) to value architecture more than they currently do
Architects create spaces that create different possibilities for the users. Sometimes, this what you call "useless" and "void" spaces create a different feel of the whole building. It contributes to the beauty and function for the space and for the architecture itself.
Definetly not my cup of tea, but, well... I don't think that any architect can please EVERYBODY...Architects just do our best; we're certainly too far away from perfection! This man, at last, has been brave enough to do his best and somehow managed to overcome a lot of difficulties to finally get to have his own mark in this this field, which is very hard to do! And he seems to be a very nice man, too, which is a lot more than you can expect from much less famous architects I know!
Europe was far closer to architectural perfection more than 200 years ago than the world is now
And people idolise this guy for no reason whatsoever, he specialised in making architecture disgusting, just like abstract art is making overall art disgusting
@@Gamez4eveR My increasing feelings exactly. Somehow the pop architecture community embraced 'pointlessness' as a conviction - perhaps it's the only thing countering the concrete/steel slabs that *might* be even worse - instead of going back to Nature-based design.
siento que este señor es muy real todo lo que dice siendo tan famoso es muy humilde el sabe q es muy bueno y siempre te muestra la verdadera cara de la arquitectura una en la que el arq no importa pero quien maneja y trabaja sobre buestros habitats construidos, arquitectura es el arte supremo arte habitable
he is a very real down to earth person and humorous too with his mini stories. :)
And I have acre of land to sell you in Antarctica
not really a favourite architect of mine but i've had the same problem of deeply disliking the idea of 'working for people/corporations' in choosing architecture as a profession. i'm still a student but architecture being so deeply rooted in the negativity of materialism can feel soul crushing. maybe it's a limited view formulated during architecture school or, more likely, my own fantasies of what i wish architecture to be - but that doesn't make me feel any better.
Architecture inherently is full of limitations and restrictions, such as architects have never managed to escape from the gravitational field.
Its a profession that caters to snobs and people into luxury and style. There is no such thing as project fitting into environmental context because there is no such thing as building being teleported into pristine like Star Treck or any other site since required earthwork and logistics is all the same for every kind of projects
i dont make a lot of money but work with few people 2 or 3 client at year, a got so many time, i meet another cultures regions people way to live the life, and u know im discovering how to make architecture in the field with thr people, i dont make a lot of money r now but men i love archietcture power and i like a lot to be a designer and construction of dreams people
NICE AUDIO! But what happens with the pics and vids? I just listen it as a radio talk show...
I lower the volume to avoid the 'music' at the beginning, then raise it and I enjoy the people talking.
he has a great sense of humor.
indeed, 17:24-17:49,.. thanks Frank,
so interesting. thank you :)
We had a museum that was designed by Frank. I did a little bit of some of the work on it. But Hurricane Katrina took it from us. I don't believe it even had a chance to open.
Architecture is Art 2.0
maybe not as thought-provoking as some of the other TEDs, but really entertaining, i liked it.
You aren't an architect, right?
@WoordWerks you're an architect?
Haters gonna hate ,Frank, haters gonna hate.
@101ers77 His building had a Casino barge land on it. There is not much that could withstand one of those, lol. Just down the road, a hotel had another Casino barge land on it, it didn't do that well either and it was 4 stories tall.
damn it..its annoying when they kept showing pictures of buildings without showing the speaker.
@aichem15 Are you an architect?
@urgiduurrgghh I never said I found beauty in his work; I don't. they're simply formal impulses of the individual imagination, inconsiderate of the real purpose of architecture. But it's very frustrating to read all these comments degrading the effort and creative capabilities of an architect.
It's astonishing to know how many people hate this guy ... Hilarious interview 👏😆
For the benefit of those high school kids interested in this profession and perhaps save you lifetime of aggravation if you are talented STEM wise, there is rampant fallacy held by people including myself before I entered architecture school that architects are technical people in traditional STEM sense in addition to working with aesthetics but that is complete false. Architecture education in US is 99% humanities discipline i.e. art, history and english with virtually no science classes to receive a diploma.
I'd like to know who he might not build for.
Exactly.
跟林北啦！
I did not like him for some of his statements, but he is nice.
you're a winner lol
Boil I'm 11 why am I watching this
Keep calm fans & love spreading good vibes, giving wealthy tycoons reasons for smart investments in spectacular crazy architectures that worth a fortune as touristic atractions, since the ancient Babylon hanging gardens, Mother Earth rewarded architecture achievements to surprise people, we could establish some kind of new social justice thans genius architects, think about it fans
just because act/design differently doesn't mean you are unique or an artist or an innovator.
@M C It's so heart warming to hear this from you. I have the same opinion. He and the other ones you mentioned try to be an architect by creating pure complex forms which are totally detached from the environment and the society . This particular person shows a middle finger to a critique, he says his architecture defies gravity, etc. I don't believe in artists and architects who don't respect others and try to fight the nature. they are just creating modern copies of Le Corbusier's works, The architects who was happy that the ww2 was destroying the cities so he could build new buildings. the same philosophy , the same outcome.
Two years ago I met Mia Shoji in NYC. He is a Japanese painter and carpenter. we had a long discussion and then I asked for an advice. He told me, "Don't design, Just help". That phrase changed my whole life. Later I read a couple books by Le Corbusier and I was really tried of his philosophy and his attempt to define architecture. Then I searched for people and schools who thought different from him. That's how I found Kengo Kuma and then Bruno Taut along with several other architects. You may find Kengo Kuma's philosophy really interesting. It's based on Helping the nature not designing an object like most architects.
if you don't like him then don't watch it
TED sleeps...
Yes, This is an incredibly ignorant group of posters.
It's one thing to be critical, it's another to proudly not know what the hell you're talking about.
People are addicted to pretentious platitudes.
Ignorance. Hey, you're "Vjsheri" on youtube, he's Frank Gehry. Of course, you're right.
Frank takes credits of his assistants.he is not the creator he is just a person u draw lines tht hav no sense and his assistants makes it worth seeing......!!!!1
And his plumbers. Don´t forget the plumbers
Frank Gehry truly is outdate, his deconstructionism style of architecture is only a sculptural one and not a truly functional one. I've been to several of his buildings and they are indeed amazing to be seen, however as an actual building they are incoherent and very hard to navigate, they cost millions more than they should, and waste a lot of materials and space. Gehry is famous not for his architecture, but for the movement from post modernism to our current style of architecture.
