#33 Practice Forward Podcast (Pamela Smith)
V Owen Bush welcomed Pamela Smith, CEO of Twine Architectural Studio, to the Practice Forward podcast to discuss technology, tools, and ideas reshaping architecture, where Pamela Smith shared her background, the evolution of Twine Architectural Studio's specialization in code-driven healthcare architecture, and specific case studies like the Greenwich Village Hospital and a Mother Baby Unit reorganization. The discussion also covered project management pragmatism, the importance of creating serenity in healthcare spaces, and the future role of AI in converting raw data into BIM models and facilitating intelligent, "self-driving" building systems, which V Owen Bush and Pamela Smith explored in the context of hospital campuses. Pamela Smith concluded by stressing the importance of mentorship, the collaborative teamwork required for hospital projects, and Twine Architectural Studio's focus on recruitment strategies for finding staff interested in healthcare.

Pamela Smith, who designs care spaces that work the way people heal—precise, calm, and rooted in place. At Twine Architectural Studio, Pamela leads teams that turn existing facilities into everyday wins: bringing a cardiac cath/EP suite and eight inpatient beds back to Manhattan’s Lower West Side so care lives closer to home; shaping an 18-thousand-square-foot otolaryngology center as an arrival-to-recovery experience; renewing pediatric infusion and bone-marrow transplant spaces for durable joy; and re-diagramming maternity so fewer babies ever travel hallways. Stewardship, through precision—without losing the neighborhood’s voice.”
