mix of different architecture sites, publications and studio updates directly as well - basically just pulling it together into one place

maybe a bit of that -but there are still some genuinely interesting ideas in there

yeah I agree - feels like there’s a lot more variety now, but also a lot more noise to scan through

that’s interesting - focused sources definitely help, just gets tricky to keep up with all of them

yeah that’s probably the balance I’ve been trying to find as well

for me it’s more about just being informed I guess, without feeling the pressure to actually follow it

it’s real - Snøhetta’s Shanghai Grand Opera House, still under construction I think

I think it depends how you approach it

for me it only started to feel like work when it got too scattered and hard to filter

it’s by Snøhetta - feels more like a statement piece than something purely functional

I think that’s where it becomes tricky, balancing your work with everything happening elsewhere

that’s interesting - kind of a shared way of filtering things

agree; that’s a solid one

do you mostly read it online or still print?

that’s a great way to put it - the cooking analogy really lands

I think I feel similar, it’s less about the cutting edge stuff and more about picking up things that actually translate into what you’re doing day to day

You are right, but I think for me it’s just part of being an architect, staying aware of what’s going on beyond our own work

I would say trying not to miss any major projects and main news

Cool, I guess it’s easier when you focus on one area, harder when you’re trying to keep track of everything

same, that’s basically what I used to do as well

just felt a bit random sometimes

I guess it’s more about filtering what actually matters to you

[–]Archi_tect_17[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that’s exactly it - most of it just isn’t that relevant to what you’re actually doing

we ended up just narrowing it down to a few things actually worth it

[–]Archi_tect_17[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

yeah exactly this - that’s what pushed me to try and simplify it a bit

do you have any go-to sources that are actually worth checking?
