Antartica

Antarctica is perhaps the most remote and challenging place on Earth to build. For this episode, Pedro had the privilege of interviewing Falcon Scott about the restoration of the historic hut originally constructed by his grandfather, Captain Robert Falcon Scott, during the 1910–1913 Terra Nova Expedition. They discuss the logistics, preservation challenges, and the extraordinary effort required to conserve this iconic structure.

Architect Pedro Clarke hosts Another Brick In The Wall, a podcast that digs into the substance of our built world. Each conversation moves beyond abstract theory to focus on the physical stuff we build with, examining material performance, practical use, and the latent potential for more sustainable architecture. You’ll hear thoughtful discussions and interviews that connect the granular details of a material’s life cycle to the broader imperative of better, more responsible construction. Pedro’s own background informs this nuanced exploration; registered to practise in both Portugal and the UK, he brings a cross-border perspective, grounded by his architectural education at Porto University and further studies in Development and Emergency Practice at Oxford Brookes. This isn’t just about specs and supply chains, but about the ideas and decisions that shape our environment. Tune in for a considered, material-led dialogue that asks what we build with, why it matters, and how those choices leave a lasting mark. The podcast offers a space for professionals and the curious alike to rethink the fundamental components of design.
