#17 - Experience Architecture: In this episode the Archispeak Podcast explores the question, “Is Architecture Fashion?” The discussion focuses on how we actually experience architecture, what architectural school should be teaching and if graduates today are good “skinners.” Also, Cormac springs a quote from Frank Gehry on us for the first time to get our reaction.
