Hero Phenomena Ep. 5 // Can You Be Personal With Architecture?

*Words by Jingwen (Jina) He

This episode will be an expansion of a question when Jina was once asked “when you review your designs yourself, you need to feel that you wanna live in your design. Have you ever felt that?”. Honestly - there are many many ways to unpack this question given the archetypes that are involved in, and both of us have approached this question from different perspectives. Having said, what were our approaches and responses?

This episode is dedicated to A*****a: Please don’t get up and personal (2018); The Personal Relationship of Architects (2020)

Notes

- Studio work // Re: Reflect (2018)
- Studio work // Connectable - in collaboration with P. Shukla (2018)

Do I Have The Right To Teach? // The Makings Of A Tutor (with. Damien Ferlazzo)

To begin my can of worms kind of season, I’ve invited my colleague Damien to explore his journey of becoming a tutor in Building Design. In comparison to our Architecture course - there are more complexities and requirements. So, what are these requirements? And what gave him the confidence to teach? Join us as we unpack the requirements of a tutor - and of course, the question of what it means to have the ‘right’ to teach.

Just a Thought // Have you ever asked a 'stupid question'?

To start this segment off, we dive into one of the most loaded terms of all time - ‘stupid questions’. What the heck is a stupid question anyway and have we asked them before? Join me and Steve as we ponder on our experiences with ‘stupid questions’ - and what our feelings towards that term are!

Thanks Steve for bringing this question up - had a lot of fun recording this reflection together!

Hero Phenomena Ep. 8 // Painted A Landscape That Led To Architecture

In this second part of the two part series - I now interview my colleague Steve on his experience in the detours taken to get into architecture. Evidently - when the first plan doesn’t work, there will always be alternatives waiting for you around the corner. Who knows! Sometimes they bring you surprises that you least expect it or even some of the greatest lessons to be carried forth! Come sit with us as we flip through the emotions and expectations faced when discussing switching courses.!

*This will be a two-part series featuring two different guests - Elliott, who has transitioned out of architecture school into building design and Steve - who transitioned into architecture from fine arts and landscape design (I need to confirm this). These moves are never easy, but they are important conversations that we don’t often discuss or applaud.

Hero Phenomena Ep. 7 // From Plan A(rchitecture) to B(uilding Design)

Media often talks and celebrates those who have transitioned into architecture, but rarely transitioned out of architecture. I suppose it's quite a daunting move - and one that we don't talk about often. Thankfully, Elliott is here to share his thoughts on his experience of his transition from Architecture to Building Design. What was it like? Were there any pressures? Come and sit with us as we laugh through some ups and downs and debate on which one is better for those who are torn between the two!
