Do buildings have souls?
Have you ever walked into a space and immediately sensed it had a rich history? Faraz and Ella explore the idea of iteration from a musical context and how this occurs in the built environment through thoughtful preservation and adaptive reuse. What makes up the soul of a building or place? Does it start with the architecture or with the people and activities that bring a space to life?

Does nature design things?
Carolyn Noble joins Faraz and Ella to discuss our relationship between the natural and built environment. From our biophilic journeys at home to the Savannah Theory and some made-up terminology, we dig deeper into the make-up of well-integrated design. How do we move past the “put a plant on it” phase of biophilia in architecture? Notes / Links: Want to learn more about the things we’ve mentioned in this episode?

What are the elements of a vibe?
Is “vibe” something we can curate, or is it best when it occurs organically? Faraz and Ella unpack some SAT words to describe how our bodies respond to spaces and ways to design for all senses. By better understanding ourselves and our senses, can we learn how to integrate this approach into the creation of a “vibe”?
