1:100 Architecture Podcast

Hey guys, as we come to the end of Season 2, we thought it was only right that we address social media and the way different platforms will bring out different personalities.  We're also joined  by a very special guest, Jason Boyle, founder of Global Architect Alliance. 

.

Jason Boyle is an Architect in the UK. He is currently the RIBA ambassador for civil infrastructure in the UK. His work as a nuclear architect currently has him working on one of three nuclear mega projects for the UK government, leading and managing teams. In 2017 Jason Boyle became the youngest Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects (FRIBA) and in 2018 he was awarded Fellowship of the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA).  It was this elevation to Fellowship in both organizations that inspired him to start mentoring others.

How do women do it? Architecture is such a time-consuming and demanding career, and at times it gets hard to dedicate time to your life outside of architecture. Is it true that you can prioritise your family and still progress in the industry?

This episode explores the balance between motherhood and the architectural career. Our guest, Lisa Raynes shares her experiences as a mother and founder of the Pride Road Franchise. Her story proves that you can have them both!

Listen Now!

Meet Lisa Raynes, the founder of Pride Road Franchise. Pride Road Franchise grew out of Lisa’s refusal to accept that there was only one way for a woman to have an architecture career and a family life. She built her practice in the domestic sector, and then invested to turn her business into one that other ambitious architects wanting a work/life balance can buy into. She’s had a seat on the RIBA Council from 2015 to 2018, been Chair of Women in Property North West, and founded Manchester Curious, an urban architecture outreach festival. Lisa is passionate about seeing other architects achieve their potential, particularly those who have left or are on the verge of leaving, the profession.

Hey everyone, the time has finally come! It's the final episode of the season but you knew we wouldn't leave it on a dry note. 

This episode explores the film Inception, directed by Chris Nolan, a pioneer in the media and arts industry. If you haven't watched a Nolan film before, Inception should be your first! I think it's fair to say that this year has had its ups and downs, but what can we as designers and creators learn about architecture in the wake of a pandemic? Inspired by an architecture student, Ariadne in the film inception, we came up with creative solutions as to how we could do more, simply by digesting what has been previously. But is this a closed paradoxical loop?
