Like many architects, Jody Brown of Durham, North Carolina, was laid off in 2009, and, like some, he started a blog, Coffee With An Architect. His posts range from quiet reflections on things like automobile tunnels to designs for architects’ valentines with such sentiments as “Love means never having to say you’re Saarinen” and “You had me at Dichotomy.” Many touch on the vagaries of architectural employment; some, like “Architects Anonymous,” are both funny and vulnerably poignant.
From arcCA DIGEST Season 5, “Motivation.”
