  • the best architecture podcast in my humble opinion

    you guys are sharp!! insightful, engaging, informative, fun! you get into the nitty gritty and you do such a good job of taking a wholistic view of your topic and connecting lots of disparate ideas and making them cohesive. i learn a lot and my architectural vocabulary had benefited greatly. i don’t even listen on the apple podcast app i literally downloaded it just to write this review because spotify doesn’t let you write one. keep it up! i’m tuned in!

  • Learn About Building Architecture and Architects and Culture

    This show is entertaining and engaging. They hosts look at building architecture through case studies of important architects such as GaudÍ and Scarpa. Plus there are book reviews like Gibson’s Neuromancer which focus on the spaces and buildings.

  • Wonderful

    This is a wonderful podcast. I am an architecture student whose curriculum is extremely design focused. This podcast is my self-assigned historical and theoretical supplement to that training and it succeeds completely. I imagine I would like it very much even if I were not a student, but probably not very much if I were not interested in buildings and cities. Lends itself to the curious, the armchair historian, and would be a splendid travel guide on a trip through Europe. Quality stuff. Thanks... more

  • Appreciation

    I am a March student in Chicago and have been listening for some time now. Highly recommend for enjoyable content, review of topics, and relevant insights. Their enthusiasm for architecture helps when you feel burnt out.
