ARCHITECT-ING

Rich Carr and John Cottle, two of the partners at CCY Architects, join the show to talk about their roots and what brought them to architecture and to their Aspen based firm. CCY is an architectural giant in our state being founded some 50 years ago. They constantly produce work of high quality that is critically rooted in its place, whether that be in the mountain environments of Colorado or spread out in other areas of the world.

On top of our conversations about their careers and design process, we dig into their new monograph, Connection which is full of photographs, plans and drawings not seen on their website before. Check it out once it hits the bookshelves.

We discuss her many volunteer roles and talk about her vision for AIA Colorado and the community at large.

Joseph Montalbano, co-founder of studiotrope Design Collective, joined the show for an Instagram Live session. We fought through some technical issues to hear about his beginnings outside of Chicago and education at the University of Illinois, Arizona State and Versailles before moving to Colorado. We then dove into his experiences and influences that formed his theories and understandings of what architecture is, and how he now tries to implement it at studiotrope.
