For this week’s episode of the A is for Architecture Podcast, I spoke to Berlin-based writer, architect and activist Anna Kostreva who, with Alex Head, leads Plural Studio, ‘a studio for critical inquiry, publishing and architectural design’. We met to talk about Anna’s novel, Seeing Fire | Seeing Meadows, which she published in 2023.Seeing Fire | Seeing Meadows uses architecture – and an architect narrator - as a way to explore the growing digitisation of everyday urban and spatial life. We talk about this, about the book’s imperative but also about writing, [science] fiction and drawing as a routes to a sort-of triangulated and more shrewd understanding of the world around us.Seeing Fire is linked above. Anna can be found at Plural Studio here, on Instagram here and on LinkedIn here.Have a listen: see things differently.+Music credits: Bruno Gillick
