Episode Description from the Publisher

EV charging stations are usually places to pass through, not places to stay. But what if they could become green, restorative spaces instead?  In this episode, host Michael Booth talks with architect Louise Flach de Neergaard from Cobe about a new generation of charging stations designed for Clever. Using timber canopies, native planting and nature-based design, the project rethinks infrastructure as a place for pause, biodiversity and everyday wellbeing.  The conversation explores how architecture can transform enforced waiting time into a meaningful break, and how even the most technical infrastructure can contribute positively to landscape, climate and quality of life.  Guest: Louise Flach de Neergaard, Architect, Cobe  Host: Michael Booth  Let's Talk Architecture is a podcast by Danish Architecture Center.
