Listen "Is the Profession of Architecture BROKEN? "
Episode Synopsis
This is an audio version of my opinion piece which was published by UK National Architecture Press, Bdonline on the 14th of April 2023. This article is behind a paywall, you have to be a subscriber to read it so I've read the article in full for my listeners.
It is an opinion piece and to those who want to question the contents of this audio reading of this article, I welcome it. Don't sit in silence, stand up as I did and help to sort out the bloody mess we find ourselves in. Architects are indeed superheroes and we deserve respect but let's get to a situation where our investment in education makes not just emotional sense but financial sense!
As a way of giving back to the profession donate to The Broke Architect Podcast's fundraiser for the Architects Benevolent Society, any donation you make could help:
Architects, Architectural Technologists, Landscape Architects and employees of architectural practices.
Dependants of the above.
We offer students of architecture, landscape architecture and architectural technology annual membership to Anxiety UK (AUK) for the duration of their course.
