Practicing architecture requires both making and managing. In this periodic series, I'll walk through all the dimensions of practice from what I’m working on in the studio, to what I'm thinking about, reading, and even what I'm binge watching.
Episode one opens with the Maker's Schedule which is what I use to run the studio. It was inspired by Paul Graham's essay: Maker's Schedule, Manager's Schedule ( paulgraham.com/makersschedule.html )
We also discuss:
- Websites for architects (my new site on SquareSpace: thirtybyforty.com )
- Getting published as an architect (and...self-publishing!)
- Netflix Abstract series
- Matt Risinger's Build channel
- Channel updates: sponsorships, upcoming videos, and...
- A thank you to all my viewers for helping to share and grow this channel...many thanks...!
