This week the Addicts are thrilled to be joined by Principals Kevin Deabler and Eric Robinson who founded RODE architects in 2006 and have grown the firm to a team of 30 talented architects who are continuing to enhance the vibrancy of the City with smart and exciting design. We discuss RODE’s design process which begins with studying the massing and the bigger, more sculptural moves of the design to ensure the building is compelling and interesting while also fitting into the surrounding context. We discuss the state of architectural design and debate whether technology that makes the process of drawing buildings quicker and easier is always necessarily a good thing. We spend some time talking about how RODE strives to always find interesting moments within the design and how they pick those moments. Finally, we take on the major topics of affordability and sustainability and how those two topics are inherent to how RODE approaches their work.
