Insights: Odile Decq

Odile Decq is one of Europe's most provocative and experimental architects. In this Insights interview, Odile describes, with her French accent and matter-of-fact delivery, how she taught herself to be an architect, how she challenges her students, what is behind her lifelong quest to learn, and the challenges of practicing in a male-dominated profession. Odile also enlightens us about her approach to furniture and jewelry design and, of course, what is behind her signature shade of red.
