Prehype, a venture development firm, has released its latest in a series of podcasts by partner Henrik Werdelin, featuring Danish architect Bjarke Ingels. Having worked with Prehype on investments into tech development, Bjarke Ingels discusses his experiences and perspectives on the industry, drawing parallels between entrepreneurship, tech development and architecture.
Beginning the interview, Ingels describes the cross-pollination of start-ups and tech developments and architecture. Especially recently, tech and web design have crossed heavily into a dialogue of “building” – that is to say, the architecture of hardware and software.
“In many ways they are doing the same things – solving problems. Architecture is the art and science of creating the framework for the life we want to live. It’s not the goal, it’s the means. The goal is life, to maximize the possibility for enjoyment of life in all aspects,” says Ingels in the podcast.
