512: Why "Sellout" Architects Are Saving...

Enoch Sears & Rion Willard
About this episode

In the latest episode of our groundbreaking podcast, "Why 'Sellout' Architects Are Saving the Industry," Enoch Sears challenges the entrenched dogmas of the architectural world. Are you tired of the glorification of design at the expense of practical business sense?

Enoch delves into the controversial yet vital discussion that the industry's 'sellouts'—those pragmatic architects who prioritize profitability—are not just surviving, but thriving, reshaping the landscape of architecture. This episode is a wake-up call for small practice owners. It's time to question: Is the disdain for business-savvy architects a path to professional martyrdom? Tune in to disrupt your perceptions and perhaps, the future of your practice.
