I feel like Wes Cecil & Michael Sugrue are probably the two of the most important philosophers lecturing these days. Love it.

As an architect, I really appreciate you recognizing us as the only party that's fully on the clients side. I'm cognizant of the "good architect" caveat at the beginning of course.

moving to France? Great! It will be easier to meet you some day.

good luck in France ,Dr Cecil

Perhaps not your usual sort of content but I'd love to hear more about your decision to move and your experiences. I've always had the impression that you loved Port Angeles.

Thanks for this Wes! One of the better series I've seen on youtube is called How Buildings Learn by Stewart Brand. It was a good exploration of this topic as well

Nice. I am in the middle of building a house quite far from my current place and find it difficult to supervise the construction.

Michael Pollan. A Place Of My Own is good book to this theme.

I work in the grading permit guild and do my best to direct clients towards understanding and compromise. After seeing enough i think my desire to build a home has been replaced with finding something close that i can work with instead.

This is cool, though I lost faith that I'll ever be able to afford a house ever in my life. I guess I could live in my car for a decade and maybe save on the rent money, but my family will probably kick my butt if I do that. I can't imagine how much harder buying houses are for people with kids.

In today's economy, how can anyone afford to build a house that reflects their values unless they have a job that betrays their values?

This is a huge struggle for me as well. There's nothing I can find that aligns with my values that even allows me to rent an apartment. So I just shut up and deal with it, but it's mentally exhausting.

I’m a broke af Turkish university student. I probably won’t ever own a house of my own. Why the hell am I even watching this? idk but I’m invested. Turns out bricks and blocks can be interesting.

You can still do a lot even inside an apartment/flat. But you won't be buying everything at IKEA.

what about the materials .. this philosophy is still stuck at extraction and domestication ... just like Man was 9000 years back...
