#36 - Pablo Funes, Classic Planning Institute: A Professional Journey, Classical Architecture Education and the Classic Planning Academy

The Aesthetic City

Join us as we delve into the rich world of classical architecture with our distinguished guest, Pablo Funes. A seasoned architect hailing from Spain, Pablo has laid his professional roots in London. With an impressive educational background that spans the University of Sevilla and the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, his journey in architecture has been marked by a noteworthy tenure at Stanhope Gate Architecture, lasting 12 years, before his transition to his present position at Katharine Pooley Design Studio.

Apart from his architectural pursuits, Pablo is passionately imparting knowledge in his capacity as the Director of Education at the Classic Planning Institute. There, he mentors student cohorts, illuminating the path through the revered realm of classical planning and the enduring principles of design that have stood the test of time.

I had the privilege of first meeting Pablo at the La Table Ronde summer school in Bruges, and our paths crossed once more at this year's IMCL congress in Poundbury. His profound expertise not only resonates with the ethos of The Aesthetic City podcast but also enriches our ongoing dialogue on the pursuit of beauty and timeless urban design. Join us for a conversation that promises to deepen our appreciation for the classical aesthetic that shapes our cities and living spaces.
