Today on the show, is Pinar Guvenc, Partner at SOUR, an architectural and design firm based in Brooklyn, New York - SOUR is a play on the words social and innovation - and their purpose is to responsibly use Design to build a better future. We get into the what the role of Architecture is and how it connects with services, and how the discipline of architecture has evolved over the last few decades and how in reality, the architects are caught between money-hungry property developers, who ultimately hold not only the purse strings but also much of the control in what is possible. We speak about accessibility in physical places, and what needs to change in order for architects to deliver more inclusive experiences. It’s a pretty free-flowing conversation and we covered quite a bit of ground. Let’s get into the episode.
