: “It’s not about what you take, it’s about what you share, and architects are capable of bringing all the puzzles of life together. Everything that happens between humans, happens in architecture; architecture is what makes us human. When we know architecture, we know life. When you make good architecture, you make a good life.”

Lovely hearing Yui growing up in a house designed by her architect father, which had many balconies (and thin paper walls), her younger self enjoying the close link between inside and out, surely a big influence behind their architecture.

THE THEATRICAL OVERDOSE OF MAISON COLBERT

A row of shopfronts in Spitalfields, East London, conceals an unexpected - and unexpectedly large - creative mixed use space. Designed by Chris Dyson Architects with interiors led by Buchanan Studios, Maison Colbert is a playful residential space, gallery, and offices - all entirely hidden but hinted at by the signs above the decoy shops.

Nothing is quite what it seems in this playfully creative mixed-use project in the centre of London’s Spitalfields. It is a project which has theatre at its heart, a coming together of both architect and interior designer to create a unique architectural Wunderkammer which has the personality and art of the clients throughout.

Artist Philip Colbert and filmmaker Charlotte Colbert had been working with Chris Dyson Architects, a firm based only a short walk away from this project, for some time on their potential future family home. That local knowledge was valuable, with the architects not only working with the clients on developing ideas for the future home but then also discovering the availability of the Spitalfields building which would become Maison Colbert.

There was a great atmosphere , a crowd gathered to celebrate the launch of the inaugural issue of the AoD Reader. It’s packed with great stuff. Congrats to who has been working on the archive for the last 10 years, bringing together “narratives around destruction and public art,” made up of “barely believable tales and life-affirming strangeness.” It took me (Yuki👋🏼) back to the time (many years ago) when I was studying fine art at an art college, where all I wanted to do was to destroy things around me rather than create new things and feeling like I wasn’t a really good artist….l find kindred souls here, I agree with Jes it would be great if this archive could promote “fearlessness” amongst commissioners, to “take in risk as an integral part of the commissioning process.” Bravo. We look forward to the future editions of the AoD Reader!

Co-founder, co-director interviewed by

“We [women] need to learn to rid ourselves of the nonsense that we hear and internalise growing up. We need to believe in our ability to make a difference in our society.“

Yuki speaks (among other things) about what sparked her interest in architecture and her beginnings in the industry, being influenced by various cultures, her most memorable moment as a journalist and the projects she’s currently most excited about. ✨
