Episode 6: Kobi Karp — Architecture & Climate Responsibility


Listen Later

What does it take to shape a skyline — and what responsibility comes with it?

This week I sat down with Kobi Karp, one of the most recognized architects in the world, whose projects span over $120 billion in iconic buildings across South Florida and beyond.

But this conversation goes way deeper than design. We talked about the housing affordability crisis and why it keeps getting worse. We got into AI and how it's already changing the way architects think about buildings. We debated zoning laws that might actually be making things worse, and we explored wild but realistic ideas — like modular homes you could own and take with you as your life changes.

Kobi also got real about what it was like when he was a teenager, what drives him, and what he hopes people say about his work long after the buildings are built.

If you've ever looked at a city and wondered why it looks the way it does — or whether it could be different — this episode is for you.
