Episode Five// The Language of Criticism 🅴

February 07, 2020

"If they don’t know you personally, don’t take it personal”

- Unknown

The word criticism carries a certain stigma that many of us are still trying to reconcile, especially when the term is often used in our profession. Having studied architecture for five years now, Amanda and I observe how our attitudes and perception towards architecture and constructive feedback has changed over the years. Not to mention, criticism comes in many forms that we may not be aware of - and how we are striving to cooperate with the term better.

Notes:

  • @20:35 - Lear Boroditsky: How language shapes the way we think

  • @31:47 - Ernest Cline - Ready Player One, Century, 2011

  • @36:48 - Hitoshi Abe’s Megahouse
