Dear subscribers,
It might seem quiet - but behind the screens, a LOT is happening.
Another two interviews went up in the last two weeks - one with Johannes Hulter, about how traditional architecture isn't necessarily a 'right wing' thing but is being embraced by social democrats in Sweden!
And this new interview with Eric Norin, one of the spearheads of the Swedish architecture uprising.
Meanwhile I'm working on multiple scripts (and the course, obviously, which is making good progress) - soon new content will arrive.
Also, the podcast has re-launched with fresh episodes, many new ones upcoming, and we have launched a brand new newsletter - the Aesthetic City Insider! Subscribe here to stay up to date with the latest news: the-aesthetic-city.kit.com/abfa24e0f6
I'll update you regularly until the next video goes live - exciting times!
Cheers,
Ruben

New interview online!
Hi everyone! Although there are no new videos (yet) on the main channel, I have something else for you while I'm working on new content and the course: a number of juicy interviews, on our Aesthetic City Conversations channel!
The first interview is with Saher Sourouri of the Norwegian architecture uprising, and next week another one will launch... and the week after, another one!
Find the video in the link below, and please consider subscribing to the Conversations channel to not miss any new interviews!
Lots of gold is coming :)

Hi all,
Short update - you might have noticed it's a bit quieter, so I thought it's about time for an update!
I'm in London at the moment, after having done a trip to Paris to speak at a congress in Le Plessis Robinson, but also to continue filming for the biggest project I've ever done: the Aesthetic City Academy course, to teach 1 million people about traditional architecture and urbanism. It's a massive amount of work (imagine having to make 10 hours of video instead of only 10-20 minutes!) but it's worth it, and I'm learning a lot.
If you want to learn more or are interested in doing this course, subscribe to the waitlist: the-aesthetic-city.kit.com/a2d41beb6f
I've also been in a number of interviews lately. Here is an English interview from the channel Paradigm Shift:

And here, for my fellow Dutchmen, an interview with De Nieuwe Wereld:

Other good news: I've got LOADS of video ideas. This year will be a crazy one: a lot of travel, but also, hopefully, a lot of pivotal videos - and the course will launch. The wait will be worth it!
Cheers,
Ruben

Hi all,
I hope you're doing well these December days! The holidays are coming up, and at The Aesthetic City we've been looking for ways to offer some fun merchandise products for some time now.
We finally found the ideal outlet: via Fourthwall. So we're happy to announce that our online shop is now opened! π We've got some nice tote bags, mugs, hats and wall art waiting for you there.
Visit theaestheticcity-shop.fourthwall.com or visit our Store tab and use code OPEN_24 to get 10% discount on your order!
We will be expanding the selection of wall art over time, as we got so many beautiful footage and imagery from cities around the world.
Also, of course, we're working on our next video that should launch this December, so stay tuned!
Best wishes,
Ruben

Apart from architecture, I've always had a bit of an obsession for history, especially early prehistoric history. A friend of mine, @TheImmortalArt has started a channel about exactly that topic and I think it will do really well. If you like it too, check it out!
In other news, work has started on some amazing new videos for October, November and December. Can't wait to share the new videos with you!
Cheers,
Ruben

Summer update - A short break before we move on to some exciting new videos!
Dear subscribers, summer is almost over - after an architecture summer school, a lightning trip to Bath and a longer trip to Italy, with a lot of filming, sketching architecture and some well deserved rest, I'm excited to get started again.
There's some nice videos coming up, so I'm hoping you're as excited as I am! Toward the end of this month the next video should be uploaded, so stay tuned :)
Cheers,
Ruben

Hi community! As you might have seen in the last video, we're a bit worried about current architectural education.
We are exploring how we at The Aesthetic City could contribute bridging the gap in education and the skills needed to transform urban spaces into beautiful, livable, and enduring places.
Please help us out by taking a quick survey to share what topics youβre passionate about and what you'd love to learn.Β
Your insights will guide us in potentially developing a course that truly meets your needs. Your input would be greatly appreciated!

We did it!!!!! 100.000 subscribers - it's almost hard to believe, after a bit more than a year!
I'm extremely grateful for your support of the channel, I would have never believed this was possible when starting out.Β 100.000 - that's a LOT of people, and I think it's heartwarming that so many people are interested in cities (and hopefully share some of my views about how we should build our cities).
But we're not done yet: there is a lot more work to be done, there are many stories I still want to tell, places to show to the world - and myths about architecture & urbanism to bust. So we're continuing, and hopefully with a more even uploading schedule. The videos take a lot of work, but I'm finding ways to outsource parts of it, because there is simply so much to cover.
Again, thank you all - without you, this wouldn't be possible. Hopefully, this milestone will help a bit to make our cities a bit more beautiful.
Cheers,
Ruben
