Most architects make beautiful drawings. Few read buildings like builders—or run thriving practices.
The Practicing Architect closes that gap: fast tools for constructability, graphics, and business. Free community with open discussions, weekly Field Notes (redlines + fixes), and starters like Read Buildings 101 (12 lessons + checklists).
Channels:
  • Announcements: Rules/updates
  • Field Notes: Weekly tips
  • Graphics & Sketching: Critiques/standards
  • Practice & Career: Fees/proposals
  • Ask Randy: Async Q&A
Free Library: CA Field Kit (checklists, shot lists), 101 PDFs.
Upgrade to Founding Member ($500 one-time) for lifetime premiums (CA Admin, Graphics for Contractors, Fees for Small Jobs) + templates. Or $97/mo for access + updates.
No fluff. No calls. Habits that slash RFIs, win jobs, level up your career.
Start Here: Introduce yourself (role, blind spot), download CA Kit, post confusion point in 101.
