We talk with architect and journalist Wendy Gilmartin. We discuss the relationship and practice of architecture informed by journalism, and the nature of Los Angeles Architecture. As a former writer for LA Weekly, and longtime professor at CAL Poly Pomona, and former advisor for the Los Angeles Forum for Architecture and Design Wendy has a deep connection and understanding of what makes up the city. We talk about small projects, building after disaster, and what makes Los Angeles architecture unique.
