Architectural practices that neglect relationship building and networking often find themselves caught in the feast or famine cash flow cycle, experiencing unpredictable periods of financial abundance followed by droughts. The cost of isolation in this industry is significant. However, by cultivating a well-connected network of professional relationships, architects increase their chances of securing the ideal projects, attracting the right clients, and maintaining a steady flow of income to sustain and grow their practices. Building and nurturing these connections prove invaluable in creating stability and prosperity within the architectural field.

Discover how architect Victor Caban-Diaz developed his first duplex project in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. I originally interviewed Victor on the podcast back in May of 2016 (episode number 157). At that time, his dream of developing a multi-family project was just a dream. Fast forward seven years, and he has just finished the 3,400 sf duplex in the South River Middle neighborhood of Ft. Lauderdale. In this episode, you'll discover the lessons Caban-Diaz learned while developing this project, including how increases in building products almost crushed the project.

Is the architecture industry collapse inevitable? Recently, Business of Architecture director Rion Willard watched a YouTube video, Principles for Dealing with the Changing World Order by author and investor Ray Dalio. Dalio writes, "I believe the world is changing in big ways that haven’t happened before in our lifetimes but have many times in history, so I knew I needed to study past changes to understand what is happening now and help me to anticipate what is likely to happen." In the video, Dalio explores what he calls the "Big Cycle" of the rise and decline of nation-states and empires. The principles that Dalio shares eerily echo the current state of the architectural industry. Listen to this episode to discover how this trend is reflected in the rise and decline of the architectural industry. ► Transcription: https://otter.ai/u/pXrS2oJDumkDmaQaFZIpzpFDd08?utm_source=copy_url ► Feedback?

Today I will be speaking with KOVA Vice President Dan Sullivan, AIA, NCARB––a licensed architect who has never really practiced “traditional” architecture––has set out to develop circularity-driven building solutions to enhance building performance and longevity from the inside out.
His initial experience lay with whimsical designs in China and Israel, Burning Man’s Catacomb of Veils, and progressive, geometric architecture practice. As Head of Design for Google Architecture’s R+D Lab, Dan discovered his passion for building solutions that lend to a healthier built environment, enhance end-user outcomes, and improve neuroaesthetics.
It was through his professional experience that he realized just how wasteful architecture and construction can be and he has set out to remedy this conundrum. At KOVA, he is constantly challenging the status quo while addressing climate change, the psychology of space, and the material waste produced by the industry.
