In episode 343 of @archispk Evan and I talk about punch lists. What are they? Who should be creating them? We also talk about the practice of architecture being an adhocracy, what that means, and wonder if there’s any way our profession can change. archispeakpodcast.com/episod…

A stroll through #detroit last night which ironically enough snapped this on the same day when @generalmotors announced they are moving from the #rencen to the new #hudsonsbuilding. #puremichigan #puredetroit

If we all can just stop for a moment on an amazing shared experience like this one on the #eclipse just think of what we can do coming together on a normal day?

Students who've told me "I don't want to sit at a computer and draw, I want to be the architect and designer" my dude what do you think architects do 😅 I'm not interested in the "I went thru it so I'll make you go thru it" attitude, but I do worry when folks just starting out aren't willing to put in the work that it takes to learn what's necessary. If you're "too good" to do the everyday work of our trade, how will you learn? There is a *huge difference* between unnecessary and silly hazing and just, like, learning the industry. It takes time, it's tedious at times, and it takes dedication. That's ok. Get in the saddle and learn!
