There have always been links between food and architecture, but the connections between Slow
Food and Slow Architecture that are explored here could highlight a number of lessons learned and
shared between these two multidisciplinary movements. As global trends within the context of an
increased awareness of sustainability, they could make a contribution towards a renewed focus on
local regions, craft and sensory experience.
Daar was nog altyd skakels tussen kos en argitektuur, maar die skakels tussen Slow Food en Slow
Architecture wat hier ondersoek word, kan ’n reeks lesse uitlig wat geleer word deur, en gedeel word
tussen, hierdie twee multi-dissiplinêre bewegings. As wêreldwye tendense binne die konteks van ’n
toenemende bewustheid van volhoubaarheid, kan hierdie bewegings ’n bydrae lewer tot ’n hernude
fokus op plaaslike streke, vakmanskap en sintuiglike ondervinding.
