Show notes

Carlo Ratti is is an Italian architect, engineer and educator, and the curator of the 19th Venice Architecture Biennale.


As the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale opens its doors, we speak with this year’s curator, Carlo Ratti—architect, engineer, and a leading thinker at the intersection of design, technology, and urbanism. Under the theme 'Intelligens: Natural. Artificial. Collective.', Ratti explores how new forms of intelligence—from machine learning to natural ecosystems—are transforming not just the spaces we build, but the tools and processes we use to conceive them. In this episode, he reflects on the Biennale's curatorial vision, and the questions it raises about architecture’s evolving role in an increasingly interconnected world.
