For us, it's a weird question to be asked because we don't approach that building any differently than we approach developing any other project that we do. And whether that's a house for a wealthy person or a museum or a restaurant, or whatever it is, which you have experience in all those.
Ever thought about how architecture can change lives? In this episode of The MY House Podcast, Michelle and Project Manager Rachael Ridge chat with Wil Carson, the visionary architect behind the Carson-Cottle center. Carson delves into his unique design philosophy, which aims to create a welcoming and supportive environment for homeless youth. He discusses how the center's design is more than just bricks and mortar; it's about fostering a sense of community and belonging.
Carson explains that his approach to designing the Carson-Cottle center was no different from any other project, whether it’s a luxurious home or a public space. His goal? To use space effectively while keeping the human element at the forefront. This episode offers a fascinating look at how thoughtful design can make a real difference in people's lives. If you're interested in how architecture intersects with social issues, this conversation is a must-listen.
