I love how he always use "we" instead of "I" or me. Just shows how humble my guy is. He doesnt take all the credit to himself but also include the community.
When I found Diébédo Francis Kéré, I found a path in architecture field. For the first time I'm visiting my ancestors in a village called Degbo,Somaliland in April to establish a rural one-classroom primary school and teachers residence.
C'est impressionnant sa détermination, sa gratitude et reconnaissance envers sa communauté lui ont permis de devenir grand. Merci e nous inspirer et de nous montrer qu'en tant qu'architectes nous sommes au service de la communauté. Grand respect Francis Kéré.
And now he is the latest Pritzker Award (the most valuable prize in architectural discipline). Truly one of a kind, an inspiration. Every time I hear his talks my architectural passion gets stronger; I belive in my profession as a tool for change and not only as a mechanism for capital income. His work and buildings is a living example of this philosophy. Congratulations Master Keré and thank you for your example and teachings. - Hiram Bolio from Mexico.
You're a great man. It really takes a Village to form an indispensable and holístic man. My heart sings after listening to your project of life. Education is the solution to mitigate and erradicate misery. Lumina spargire. Congratulation on the prizes and deserved accomplishments.
Très motivant, je pense en tant qu'étudiant en architecture qui a eu aussi l'opportunité de quitter mon pays natal, le Bénin, il faut que j'y retourne en fin formation pour répondre aux besoins de ma communauté. Francis kéré est un ainé à suivre.
I love how you can make something with the power of your hands, the creativity of your mind and the soil that surrounds you. People like Kéré prove that the only thing that stands between us and our goals is our own doubt.
Fancis Kéré you are a great soul, never forgot your roots, try to improve better lives for Burkina Faso youth. You are a gifted person. Keep on your good work!
What an amazing way to build something that everybody would like to do so once in their life journey. Diebedo Francis brings architects to their original philosophy!
I have deep respect for this gentleman. Since giving this TED Talk, Mr Kéré has won the Pritzker Prize. I’m delighted, because, yes, this is long-due personal recognition, and yes, because it’s the first time it’s been awarded to an African architect, but, most importantly, I’m delighted because Mr Kéré’s work represents a shift in the architectural profession towards a new set of values; community, inclusivity, locality, ecology, life transformation, sustainability, nature. Africa is leading now; the West needs to follow.
@@patrickschafstein5848 With respect, no they were not. Both the examples you cite were top-down, centralised, paternalistic, bureaucratic impositions that often trampled on the aspirations of local networks and in many cases dispersed settled communities. I worked professionally in the early stages of social housing tenant participation in the UK in the 1980s and 1990s and can attest to how much local government of all political persuasions had treated their tenant communities with contempt up to that point. What Mr Kéré is doing is of a radically different nature.
Congratulation to this man for winning the 2022 pritzker prize ❤️❤️❤️❤️ A visionary architect, his love for his people, his innovative technicalities and the spirit of his architecture...may he inspire all of us
I was very impressed with the work of Diébédo Francis Kéré, beautiful he recognize where he came from and come back with ideas for his community! Diébédo Francis Kéré is one of my biggest inspirations.
Similar to most modern buildings of the world, but with clay! Amazing! I love the designs too. Minimalist, simple and functional. Hats off to this guy!
People really do not want to leave their homes and communities, it's very difficult and heartbreaking and having to leave at such a young age. I am so proud of Francis for remembering his community and creating the opportunity for livelihood so that families can stay together in the communities that they love!
Un projet qui ne ne demande pas beaucoup de moyens, simple et fonctionnel. Il est à féliciter pour le travail effectué par sa communauté et son leadership.
Very good, an example how to live better helping its own community. Is a path the African's communities should follow. Very proud of him and what he has done for Africa in general.
Now, in 2022, he won the Pritzker Price. I am studying architecture and i didn´t know his work, he is an inspiration for all of us and I really hope to know him one day. Congratulations Diébédo, you are amazing!!!
He has such a nice voice; I can imagine him voicing over a movie. I knew about him when he got the Pritzker prize in 2022 but I didn't know about this Ted Talk, one of the best ever!
I love it this man is an Example of bringing excellence to your home and using hone grown techniques to advance, if only people in my nation understood that mud/clay building can be good too if you build them right
Totalmente inspirador el trabajo y el mensaje de Kéré, un hombre agradecido que ama apasionadamente su trabajo, su tierra y su gente. Vi una exposición sobre su obra hace unos años y me fascinó. Ahora que lo he escuchado, me ha fascinado él también.
The story of the women giving the last penny to contribute to his education and later on coming to pay back with this and may be some of them could have not been there to see it. Just amazing story so inspiring to young Africans learning architecture 😊 a remote to their sleepless nights lol
He is a perfect example of the saying, ( To Whom Much Is Given, Much Is Expected). Perfect example of what could make Black society better. Kids these days should say ,thank you instead of F you. He feels a sense of responsibility for doing what he can to make his community a better place. If everyone on earth was like him we would have Heaven on earth.
Me titule en Lima,Peru,con un centro educativo de adobe...aunque fui felicitada por el jurado ...me alegra saber elegi lo correcto.Ojala un dia pueda venir a Peru donde milenariamente se construye con adobe.Lo esperamos.
I love the talks out of Africa. There is so much innovation, at the simplest level, that comes out that it amazes you the beauty of science and design. Also, it is such a different reality.
Es maravilloso lo que hace ya que no solo ayuda a su comunidad sino a nosotros también al mirarnos como pertenecientes de una comunidad y sembrarnos esa semillita de pertenencia para preguntarnos que hacemos por la nuestra, gracias arqui
Diébédo you are an inspiration! I am writing my civil engeneering masters thesis on compressed earth bricks... going to do some proper research on you and your work, and hope too learn more! Keep it up!
So moving and inspiring! I wish there be thousand of people like Diebedo Francis Kere and his community!,, this world would be a better place where to live!
Very impressive talk! Much respect to him and his community :) So many good things can be created when people come together to innovate. Ideas like this need more spreading.
Trabajar con materiales del lugar es ahorrador e ingenioso. Acaso los animales no hacen lo mismo? Trabajar con materiales del lugar. Muy humano este hombre, su comunidad lo ayudo y ahora él revierte en ella, agradecido y enseñando a su comunidad como trabajar sin tener que emigrar. 🙏❤️
Hoy ganó el Pritzker y no hay mejor representante que él, para demostrar que la arquitectura no solo es de lujos y para unos cuantos. La arquitectura debe servir por un bien común

Those set of values were already present in soviet architecture, or council housing in Europe from the 60s. Without ecology, etc, of course.
