The fifth lecture in the Talking Interiors lecture series is by The Dutch architect Ben van Berkel. He founded UNStudio in 1988 with Caroline Bos. The studio is wide-ranging in its concerns, covering architecture, urban development and infrastructural projects, and van Berkel is as broad in his inspiration, citing everything from the humorous writings of David Sedaris and PG Wodehouse to the moon landings and the Katsura Palace in Japan. Buildings include the highly-awarded Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart, as well as the Music Theatre in Graz and the dazzling Galleria department store in Seoul.
