Listen "Redesigning Time – Decision, Speed, and the New Logic of Practice"
Episode Synopsis
Matt Krissel — architect, educator, and principal at Perkins&Will — joins us to rethink our relationship with time in an AI-augmented practice. With decades of experience leading transformative projects and as co-founder of the Built Environment Futures Council, Matt brings a unique perspective on how speed, decision-making, and time are being rebalanced in today’s design culture.This episode explores the tension between acceleration and reflection: What do we gain when AI compresses timelines — and what risks emerge when decisions are forced too quickly? Can time itself become a design material, reshaped to create space for intuition, narrative, and meaning?From client expectations to the choreography of choices, we reflect on authority, trust, and the human role in a landscape of data-driven tools. And we ask: in redesigning time, what kind of future are we really designing for?
