A few weeks ago I retweeted an article about a nightmarish Victorian house flip that touched off a minor architectural tweet storm. That prompted an email from James Heard and Ashton Hamm of UXO Architects who had some opinions about this flip and about architecture and city design in general. So I asked them to join us on the podcast. During the conversation Ashton and James mention:
The economics of house flipping
Architects in the gig economy
Worker cooperatives
Financial barriers to becoming an architect
The Architecture Lobby
Architecture Lobby Manifesto
Housing affordability
Last House on Mulholland Drive communal living proposal
Codes
Why do all those boxy new buildings look the same?
Aesthetics in architecture
Neutra VDL house
