  • Episode 04: Ugly Ducklings
    This month, we are discussing ugly despised *interesting* buildings. We all have something we love even though everyone else hates it. For Rae, that love is for Split Levels. For Andi, it's Brutalism. In this episode we will try to convince you that we are not crazy, and maybe even convert you. You'll learn about the origins of these buildings and we'll discuss their pros and cons. So, are you #teamsplitlevel, #teambrutalism, or perhaps #teamyouarebothcrazy? Let us know!
