In this episode, we talk to ⁠Andrew Holt, an ex-architectural Technologist and Product designer. He pivoted out of architecture and is now a visionary, hands-on Chief Executive Officer (CEO) with expertise in delivering enterprise-level Digital Engineering and Digital Asset Management architectures for complex project delivery.

The founder of REBIM Cloud Collaboration Software (rebim.io), REBIM for SharePoint and Azurelope limited. A domain expert in the field of data-driven Enterprise Asset Management, Andrew lives and breathes through the company’s technology. Andrew has worked in various sectors including Nuclear, Healthcare, Civil Aviation, Defence, Football Stadia, Hotels, Commercial & Office, Food & Retail and Hi-value Residential properties, having worked in key roles on several projects.

We discuss why Andrew left the profession and moved into TECH. We discuss the success and failures and how employing the services of an ex-hostage negotiator led to a change in how he changed everything in his life, reinventing his beliefs and as such has become incredibly successful in gaining large defence contracts whilst maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

This is the thirteenth Episode of Season 2 of The Broke Architect Podcast!

This show is brought to you by the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Global Architect Alliance (GAA)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. 

In this episode, we talk to ⁠James and Karla Murray who are husband-and-wife architectural and interior photographers and multi-media artists based in New York City. For over twenty-five years they have focused their lens on the streetscape through portraits of storefronts and shop owners and have strived to capture moments of city life that often go undocumented but capture the spirit, energy and cultural diversity of individual neighbourhoods. They made it their mission to thoroughly document unique 'mom-and-pop' stores when they began to notice the alarming rate at which the shops were disappearing.

We discuss the reasons why so many stores are disappearing, never to return and with this the complete disaster of the NEON signs that make New York New York. We discuss AIR RIGHTS that allow super-tall buildings and KATZ'S DELI who made great money selling these rights. We talk about the lack of historic preservation and how chain restaurants could one day KILL the individuality of the city.
