digitalcarbon Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 An architect I worked for used this word to define a situation where people (contractor, client, etc) tries to get design information out of you by talking. While you insist that the situation needs to be drawn up to fully understand the situation, "architecture". 2 Quote Link to comment
unearthed Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 It's one indication (altho' should not be used alone) of clients who tend to scope creep ime. Unless you have a 'name' (and even when you do) you often have to give a bit away to secure the job (so be careful which bit), but if they're really pushy it's time to walk away. Doing the latter gracefully means it's worthwhile having a strategy in mind at the start just in case this happens. 1 Quote Link to comment
Matt Overton Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Goes nicely with "clarkitecture" the filling out of endless forms no one will read in order the get anything going on the one plan they will look at. Quote Link to comment
