Épisode 74

lundi 14 mars 2022 • Durée 53:39

When you think about design, data probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. Yet, that’s exactly what you should be thinking about according to Bobby Fijan of Form Developers.

Consider the tenant experience
Listen to the data
Be the expert
Speak the developer’s language
Let the city guide your design
Prove your expertise
Share online if you won’t in real life
