Longer lives are among the most remarkable achievements in all of human history — and the greatest challenge of the 21st century. How can we ensure that our lives are not just longer, but healthy and rewarding as well? From the Stanford Century on Longevity, Century Lives is here to start the conversation. Join us as we venture into the world of education, work, healthcare, housing, and more to explore how our future as a population of centenarians has already begun.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/century-lives-4614503"},"episode":{"title":"Rem Koolhaas","slug":"rem-koolhaas","published_at":"2026-01-28T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/century-lives-4614503/rem-koolhaas","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/century-lives-4614503","url":"https://pdst.fm/e/traffic.megaphone.fm/TPG5022575316.mp3","audio_url":"https://pdst.fm/e/traffic.megaphone.fm/TPG5022575316.mp3","summary":"What is it about architecture that celebrates longevity? The world’s most famous architect, Frank Gehry, was actively at work until his death at age 96, finishing his Guggenheim Museum in Abu Dhabi and still designing the greatest works of his career. Masters Frank Lloyd Wright and Phillip Johnson also worked into their 90s and were even more prolific than Gehry. In this special series, Century Lives introduces Victoria Newhouse, a renowned architectural historian. At age 87, Victoria chats with her contemporaries: the late Frank Gehry, Rem Koolhaas, Moshe Safdie, Peter Eisenman, and Raj Rewal—all renowned architects and all in their 80s and 90s. In the final episode of this five-part series, Victoria Newhouse talks with visionary architect Rem Koolhaas, who has been shaping and disrupting architecture for his entire career. At age 80, he is the youngest of Victoria’s guests and remains a prolific writer and one of the world’s most influential architects with multiple new projects, including the expansion of NYC’s New Museum, opening Fall 2025.","meta_description":"What is it about architecture that celebrates longevity?
