Description

When we say being an architect is magic, it's not because we want to disappear. Yet our profession is slowly losing its influence. Worse, it's an inside job. My guest, architect Beau Dromiack, calls it like it is. He exposes how the profession traded influence for efficiency, and why surrendering our accountability and craft has left us sidelined. More importantly, he shows us how to take it back.

1. Architecture is hard because we constantly have to adapt to completely new constraints. Our descisions have impact for decades beyond the design time frame.
2. We need to stop trading craft for efficiency. The profession loses influence when it gives up accountability and responsibility.
3. To reintegrate our fractured practice, we need to refocus on what architects uniquely offer: value, skill and optimism
4. The future of architecture depends on whether we stop playing small and start owning our influence again.
