Episode Synopsis

Today's episode looks at the history of the "Architect" in the modern sense and the decisions made along the way that created a divide between the people who use buildings and the people who design them. Architects are notorious for having their own language, with some words that are necessary and some that are not.  This episode takes the entire issue apart piece by piece, and ultimately proposes a way forward.
