The Architecture Social Show, Pilot!

Summary

Stephen Drew and Will Ridgway test the Architecture Social Show format with architecture news, job-market updates, live interaction, net zero office projects, RIBA future trends, community highlights, podcast updates, events and viewer contributions.

This live pilot tested a simple idea: bring architecture news, jobs, events and community conversation into one informal Architecture Social format.

Stephen Drew and Will Ridgway discuss architecture news, job-market updates, live interaction, net zero office projects, RIBA future trends, community highlights, podcast updates, events and viewer contributions.

The conversation covers:

  • How the Architecture Social Show format started
  • Why live jobs, market trends and architecture news were grouped together
  • How community comments and events shaped the early platform
  • What the pilot reveals about Architecture Social's original live-show energy
