Points to Consider for Students of Architecture, ft. Jacob Peplow.

Show Notes

Jake Peplow is an Architect who has created 'Points to Consider'; the new handbook for students of architecture wanting to enrich and invigorate their time studying architecture.

In the book he address the whirlwind journey of studying architecture through a simple, comprehensive set of guidance notes; a handbook that can be used at all stages of your design project and, in a wider sense, all stages of your architectural development. 

In total there are 50 points, so I picked my favourite 5 and so did Jacob in this conversation. Join us to discuss our thoughts based on over a decade of academic and practical engagement with the field of architecture.

What is Architecture Social?

It is hard to get a job in architecture. We exist to help you get there. Hosted by Stephen Drew, Architecture Social is the unfiltered guide to the UK Built Environment. We decode the realities of the industry, provide actionable cheat codes for your career, and bridge the communication gap between the drafting board and the boardroom.

Whether you are a Part I assistant trying to survive your first role, a Part III architect managing complex procurement, or a Practice Director fighting tight margins and adapting to the Building Safety Act, this podcast is your central node of intelligence. We strip away the aesthetic gatekeeping and toxic positivity to talk about the actual mechanics of the business.

Expect honest conversations about salary realities, portfolio strategies, hiring economics, and the true experiences of the people actively shaping the profession.

No fluff, just the reality of practice.
