NO ENTRY! Exposing The Barriers To Entry Within The Architecture Industry, ft. Laurence Richards and Joe Maguire
January 02, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 57.7 MBOne of the analogies I often use to visualise the Architecture Industry is like trying to get into a club. You’re an enthusiastic Architecture Graduate trying to get in the club known as the “Industry”. From the outside, you see all the happy people, however, in front of you is a grumpy bouncer holding the entrance past the rope barrier. “No UK experience?! Back of the queue!” “NEVER used BIM?! Hmmmph, I don’t think this is the right place for you” “Under 3 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE?!… Back of t...
What has Augmented and Mixed Reality got to do with Architecture?
December 26, 2022 09:00 - 48 minutes - 44.4 MBWhatever happened to QR Codes and overlaid information in the real world? Does Mixed Reality (MR) and Augmented Reality (AR) still play a role in the architectural design and construction of our built environment? So far we have been exploring Architecture in the Metaverse together. Sometimes this involves exploring new worlds using Virtual Reality headsets, a computer or a phone to explore different designs and creations. I'm interested to know if AR/MR still has a role to play in enhanc...
Why are most Architecture Practices’ websites COMPLETELY USELESS!
December 19, 2022 09:00 - 57 minutes - 52.6 MBIf you've ever been job seeking, you've probably looked at over a hundred Architecture Practice's online which includes scrolling through their websites. Some are an absolute job, with beautiful images and a great user interface which glides you from one project to another with a gentle touch. The vast majority of Architecture Practices' websites on the other hand deserve to be taken to the Web-design JAIL for serial offences such as slow-loading websites, unclear menu structure, absolutel...
What is "Co-Living" Architecture? Ft. Node Living and David Drews
December 12, 2022 09:00 - 43 minutes - 39.7 MBIn the last few years, I've heard more and more about "Co-Working", especially since the pandemic where many companies are downsizing their offices for flexible working environments. On the other hand, I have started to see the term "Co-Living" pop up more and more. Is this some new fun, glamorous way of living that is very different from the student halls I used to live in many years ago? It sounds like it! Fortunately, to find out precisely what "Co-Living" design looks like, I am joine...

Architecture Careers in the Gulf, ft. Andy Shaw
November 27, 2022 09:00 - 44 minutes - 40.5 MBDo you know a person in your group of friends who moved to Dubai in the last few years? In my experience, this person usually takes great pleasure in telling you how excellent Dubai is every time you meet them. How many shops there are, the beaches, the buildings, the flights. "Is it raining in London? Well, here..." Alright, I get it, it's nice! I've never been to Dubai myself, or the wider Gulf, however, I've always been curious about what it's like to have an Architecture Career in the...
The Business Of Metaverse Architecture, Ft. Sunken Blimp
November 23, 2022 16:58 - 51 minutes - 47.2 MBSo far on this channel, we've had several Architects on our channel talking about their creations and passion projects in the metaverse. These are cool and interesting; however, how many of these designers have been paid for their work or have the projects made a profit? Architects in the real world are paid to deliver buildings to their clients - so how many designers are delivering projects in the Metaverse for clients with a budget? Sunken Blimp is Metaverse Architecture Studio bringin...
Neil Pinder and GLAM GOES GLOBAL!
November 18, 2022 16:15 - 45 minutes - 41.7 MBGLAM is an acronym for GUCCI, LOUIS VUITTON ARCHITECTURE & ME.

Through this popular culture, we can attract and enthuse young creatives to learn about architecture, and engineering either those choosing university courses or univer...

November 17, 2022 09:00 - 30 minutes - 27.6 MBWe’re going through changes in the Architecture Industry, some better than others, depending on whether you’re the hiring manager or working within a practice and your company’s culture. It’s been over a year since we returned to work. Before the pandemic, most Architecture Practices were working full-time in offices. Many thought it would be impossible to work remotely yet we powered through. Some companies have brought with them flexible working either remote or hybrid, while some are ret...

Why are most Architecture Job Boards and Recruiter Websites so RUBBISH!?
November 12, 2022 13:11 - 1 hour - 58.5 MBSearching for a job is like a job in itself. Anyone who disagrees hasn't had the misfortune of clicking through a thousand websites to find their job. Honestly, it can be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Except the hay is actually sharp needles which asks for all your personal data, crashes and ghosts you when you've handed everything over. Sometimes the job is out of date, if you can find it to begin with because the search function was coded someone who has never worked in your i...

Whether it's architectural journalism, moving to a developer or becoming an Architectural Photographer.

On that note, I'm joined by the fantastic Chris Hopkinson who I met s...
Huh?! What has “BD” or “Business Development” got to do with Architecture? Ft. Tyler Suomala
October 20, 2022 16:19 - 1 hour - 55.5 MBIf you've ever followed a Marketing expert for the Architecture Industry, you may hear some jargon and be thinking what on earth do some of these words and abbreviations mean... A few serial offenders that should be thrown into the jargon jail that come to mind are CTA, KPI, PPC, ROI, SEO and BD. Surely some of these must be useful and important if everyones' saying them right? So what is "BD" or "Business Development" and why is it essential to practising Architecture and building a bus...
How to move Client-Side as an Architect to a Developer or Main Contractor
October 05, 2022 17:10 - 51 minutes - 47.5 MBWith the rising cost of living and crashing economy in the UK, you wouldn't be the only Architect thinking about moving Client-Side. After all, I can see why many would think it would be appealing to work in real estate on the Developer's team or perhaps as part of a Main Contractor instead of an Architecture Practice. Over the years I've seen several Architects successfully move client-side, and an awful lot that have wanted to make the jump but have fallen short of making the shortlist a...

I'm an underpaid and overworked Architect... GET ME OUT OF HERE!
September 05, 2022 18:35 - 1 hour - 69.6 MBHave you ever been working midnight hours in the office to meet a deadline and quietly thought to yourself, "What am I doing with my life?". OK, that's kind of dramatic. Perhaps you've seen your friend who works in the real estate industry's new Tesla and thought, "I could never afford that!". OK ok... that is unrealistic. Who would buy a tesla with the current energy rates anywho?! Perhaps your energy provider has sent you a recent energy plan renewal at 3,500,000% of the original, an...

September 01, 2022 14:22 - 51 minutes - 47.6 MBChances are that if you're watching this episode, you've also studied Architecture and worked in the industry. If you're also not living under a rock or have successfully gotten your life together, unlike me, then you probably also understand what social media is because you're watching far too much random stuff on Youtube, browsing pointlessly through Instagram as well as procrastinating on LinkedIn while pretending to be working. For us mere mortals who scroll the Reels on our way to w...

How can graphic design and branding enhance the built environment? .ft Chris Ritter at C-90
August 09, 2022 14:47 - 47 minutes - 43.8 MBHow can graphic design and branding enhance the built environment?

July 11, 2022 13:58 - 50 minutes - 45.8 MBWith the cost of living crisis, rising costs to study architecture, and living in a post-Brexit world (for all of our UK listeners), a key question that comes to mind is whether Architecture REALLY is accessible for all to study and practice in reality anymore?

Is The Bartlett the tip of an iceberg of a toxic culture within Architecture Education?
June 30, 2022 08:35 - 51 minutes - 47.2 MBTwo weeks ago an independent investigation report of The Bartlett School of Architecture exposed a toxic learning and teaching culture. The AJ reported it as the biggest open secret in Architecture, Dezeen said its shocking and unsurprising at the same time. Maryam Al-Irhayim, Vice President for Students and Associate Members (Part I's and Part II's) at the RIBA recently wrote an article discussing the bullying and discrimination that many students have echoed to her from their experienc...
Who is Muyiwa Oki and why is he running for the RIBA Presidency in the 2022 election?
June 29, 2022 13:52 - 57 minutes - 52.6 MBIt's that time of year at the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) where the candidate nominations in the current elections have been announced and hustings are in place. For the few engaged RIBA members, this is an important moment that could invoke change. Equally, there are many members who perhaps have grown tired and jaded with the institute as of late and elections feel pretty pointless. Why do I say that? A bold claim? Well, the last election the turnout was just 13.2 perc...
