Fusing the liberal arts with architecture, construction and real estate to build a more beautiful, resilient, and thriving world for PEOPLE. I believe a more thriving world is possible through restoring our built environment. But today's hyper-segregated, financialized building industry is not conducive to solving complex problems or creating dynamic places for human flourishing. I interview a wide range of guests involved with crafting the built world: developers, architects, urban designers, builders, investors, inventors & officials, exploring holistic solutions to a better human habitat.

    #45 Aleksandr Gampel: Reinventing Homebuilding with Mobile Micro-Factories and Cuby Technologies

    What if the future of affordable housing doesn’t come from prefab or 3D printing, but from building vertically integrated factories that travel to where homes are needed most? In this episode, I sit down with Aleksandr Gampel, co-founder and COO of Cuby Technologies, to talk about their radical approach: Mobile Micro-Factories. Instead of shipping oversized boxes across the country, they bring a full factory on-site – producing windows, panels, framing, and even helical piers locally, then assembling homes with unskilled labor. We get into why housing costs have exploded (up 40–50% since pre-COVID), how Cuby’s system cuts hard costs by reducing skilled labor, and why most prefab and modular ventures have failed. Aleks explains how their vertically integrated model works, why they’re targeting small-to-mid-sized builders instead of one-off homeowners, and what it will mean when dozens, or even hundreds, of mobile microfactories are running across the U.S. We also dive into design: steel tube framing, magnetic facades, and the surprisingly elegant logic behind Toyota’s production system applied to housing. If you’ve ever wondered how we might actually build cost-effective, durable homes at scale – without sacrificing beauty or quality – this episode is worth your time.

    #44 Ann Sussman and Kelsey Bradley: Cognitive Architecture – Stone Age Brains In A Modern World: What Neuroscience Can Teach Us About Making Places People Love

    What if the key to designing better cities wasn’t just in concrete, code, or cost, but in understanding how our brains actually work? In this episode, I talk with Ann Sussman and Kelsey Bradley of the Human Architecture and Planning Institute (HAPI) about a subject that’s as profound as it is underdiscussed: how our unconscious biology reacts to the built environment – and how that should change everything about how we design. Ann, architect and author of Cognitive Architecture  and Kelsey, founder of Design Cause Inc., now Executive Director at HAPI, walk us through the neuroscience of placemaking. We talk eye tracking. Skin conductivity. Heart rate variability. And how our “Stone Age brains” are still calibrated for the Savannah, even when we’re stuck in a strip mall. This episode will validate what many of us feel but can’t quite explain why some places energize us, and others quietly drain us. The answers aren’t just aesthetic. They’re evolutionary.

    #43 Isaac French: You Can Just Do Things – How a First-Time Developer Built One Of The Most Beloved Retreat Brands In The Country

    In this episode, I talk with Isaac French, founder of Live Oak Lake and one of the most thoughtful voices I’ve come across in the world of experiential real estate. Isaac’s story reads like an adventure novel: raised with eight siblings on a Texas farm, homeschooled, steeped in grit. Well before turning 30, he walked five acres of tangled brush – no money, just a vision – and figured out how to design and build a seven-cabin, Nordic-inspired retreat that went viral, grossed over $1M in bookings, and sold for $7M. All in under two years. And plenty went wrong along the way. He’s basically a case study in the idea: you can just do things. We talk about how Isaac blends hardware – design, layout, light – with software – hospitality, scent, story – to create spaces that are both deeply personal and universally resonant. He shares how a glitch in the Airbnb matrix led him to build a direct-to-consumer brand from scratch, and how beauty often begins by submitting to constraint, whether it’s the land, the budget, or your own limits. If you’ve ever wondered what it would mean to build with your soul, not just your spreadsheet, this one’s for you.

    #42 Charles Duff: North Atlantic Cities - The Forgotten Blueprint for the Future

    New episode out now with Charles Duff, author of The North Atlantic Cities. This is one I’ve wanted to record for years, ever since I read his book. Charles lays out a vision of city building that’s neither skyscraper-packed Manhattan nor endless suburban sprawl, but something in between. Something tested, timeless, and deeply human. We talk about what makes cities like Amsterdam, London, and Boston so livable-and why they offer a roadmap for places like Oklahoma City and the Sunbelt. It’s not about replicating Parisian density or banning cars. It’s about building places where families can live in row houses, walk to a corner store, catch a train, and still have a backyard, space and privacy. It’s about recognizing that the built environment is one of our biggest levers for addressing the environment, culture, economics, and quality of life–all at once. Charles explains how a bunch of brick houses built by 17th-century merchants ended up creating one of the most resilient, beautiful, and efficient urban forms the world has ever seen. And he makes a compelling case that we don’t need to invent a new future, we just need to remember what already works. This one’s for anyone who cares about the intersection of beauty, density, and sanity in our cities. Hope you enjoy it–and if you do, go read the book. It’s changed the way I think about building.

    #41 Joachim Tantau: Sacred Geometry, Beauty, and the Universal Language of Nature

    In this episode, I sit down with Joachim Tantau–a cabinetmaker, artist, teacher, and occasional architect to explore the quiet power of sacred geometry. Joachim works at the intersection of tradition, craftsmanship, and cosmic math. His approach to design isn’t just about aesthetics, it’s about uncovering the fundamental order embedded in nature, music, architecture, and even the movements of planets. We talk about how flowers, planets, and buildings all share hidden proportional systems; why the Golden Ratio keeps showing up in history and design; and how ancient builders created structures more efficient-and more awe-inspiring-than much of what we build today. We also dig into why beauty is not just a luxury, but a basic human need. If you’ve ever felt like modern buildings don’t quite “speak” to you, this might explain why.

    #40 Inflation, Architecture, and the Death of Beautiful Buildings - a Yoeman Podcast Guest Episode

    A hundred years ago, people in small towns were building things that still stop us in our tracks. Two-story brick shops on the corner of Main and Commerce. Sturdy. Modest. Enduring. And beautiful. So the question is: what changed? I joined Geoff Graham on his Yeoman podcast, alongside Jaime Izurieta and Saifedean Ammous (author of The Bitcoin Standard), to try and unpack that question. We talk about why the small towns of the early 1900s could build beautiful things without credentialed architects, starchitects, or REIT funding... and why today, with all our global supply chains and five-star consultants, we mostly build disposable boxes. Turns out, there’s a connection between money, time preference, and architecture. And when the money got funny, everything else started to crack too – our neighborhoods, our supply chains, even our standards for beauty. It’s a wide-ranging conversation that touches on architecture, monetary policy, code creep, and how the over-financialization of everything is eroding our ability to build for the long haul. Take a listen if you’ve ever wondered why your grandparents' post office looks better than your city’s new civic center.

    #39 Alli Thurmond Quinlan - The Field-Tested Guide to Terraforming Your City

    You’re not supposed to be good at everything. But somehow, Alli is. Architect, landscape architect, developer, GC, policy reformer, zoning translator, builder of teams, builder of trust, builder of actual buildings-it’s no wonder we spent the first five minutes of this episode just trying to list all the roles she plays. In this conversation, Alli joins me to talk about what it means to be a true generalist in an era obsessed with specialization. We cover her journey from flipping houses as a teenager to running a growing team at Flintlock Lab, directing the Incremental Development Alliance, and quietly (or not so quietly) reshaping how development works across the country-starting in her hometown of Fayetteville, Arkansas. We dig into building science, incremental housing, the limits of Revit, and why being a builder makes you a better architect (and vice versa). But we also get into the harder stuff-like learning to lead, facing city bureaucracy, and what to do when the guy reviewing your permit might genuinely want to run you over with his truck. This one’s as practical as it is philosophical, and it left me feeling more hopeful-and a little more fired up-about what’s still possible if we’re willing to roll up our sleeves and terraform our own backyards. CHAPTERS 00:00 Community Engagement and Local Impact 02:51 The Multifaceted Career of Ali 05:51 Navigating Development and Housing Challenges 09:09 The Unique Economy of Fayetteville 11:56 Balancing Growth and Community Needs 14:57 Career Trajectory and Intentionality 18:06 Building Science and Sustainable Practices 20:49 Design-Build Workflow and Efficiency 24:07 Entrepreneurial Spirit in Development 31:57 The Design-Build Approach: Learning Through Doing 34:51 Scaling Up: The Challenges of Growth 39:10 Understanding the Market: Design Meets Demand 41:55 Terraforming Communities: The Role of Local Investment 44:11 Building a Culture of Collaboration: The Fayetteville Experience 49:50 Changing the Narrative: Zoning and Community Engagement 57:04 Navigating Conflict: Building Relationships with City Staff 01:08:20 Building Relationships in Local Governance 01:15:06 Navigating Conflict with City Staff 01:20:01 Growing a Business: Challenges and Changes 01:26:09 Tools and Software for Efficiency 01:34:00 Learning from Failures and Growth CONNECT WITH Alli Flintlock Lab: flintlocklab.com Incremental Development Alliance: incrementaldevelopment.org Instagram: @flintlocklab LinkedIn: Alli’s Profile CONNECT WITH AUSTIN TUNNELL Newsletter: https://playbook.buildingculture.com/  https://www.instagram.com/austintunnell/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/austin-tunnell-2a41894a/  https://twitter.com/AustinTunnell CONNECT WITH BUILDING CULTURE https://www.buildingculture.com/  https://www.instagram.com/buildingculture/  https://twitter.com/build_culture  https://www.facebook.com/BuildCulture/  SPONSORS Thank you so much to the sponsors of The Building Culture Podcast!

    #38 Jeral Poskey: Urban Transportation of the Future? Retrofitting Suburbia with Swyft Cities.

    In this episode, I talk with Jeral Poskey, former project executive at Google, and current Founder and CEO of Swyft Cities, about a radically different approach to urban transportation that’s fast, flexible, and surprisingly affordable. Spoiler: it's not autonomous or flying cars. When I first heard about Swyft’s solution, I was skeptical.  But I’m increasingly excited about the possibilities, and how it could unlock walkable districts and neighborhoods within the suburban sprawl context (so basically everywhere).   We get into how Jeral’s experience inside Google’s real estate division led to the birth of Project Swyft, why traditional mass-transit infrastructure isn’t feasible (at least on its own), and how Swyft’s solution solves for the last few miles, weaves between buildings, and adapts to cities as they grow. If you're into urbanism, real estate, autonomous vehicles, or just want to understand what could actually make our cities function better (without waiting 20 years and wasting billions of dollars for a new train–looking at you, California), this one’s worth your time.  And excitingly, Swyft has numerous projects underway around the world beginning in 2026. CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction to Project Switch and Urban Transportation 01:48 The Origins of Swyft Cities 05:08 Innovative Transportation Solutions 10:31 Skepticism to Curiosity 14:09 The Last Mile Connection and Urban Challenges 17:34 Economic Models and Urban Growth 19:23 Modularity and Network Effects in Urban Transit 21:16 AI and Efficiency in Transportation Systems 23:40 Cost Comparisons and Infrastructure Decisions 24:15 Understanding the Station Design and Functionality 26:22 Infrastructure Flexibility and Cost Efficiency 29:09 The Competition: Self-Driving Cars and Urban Mobility 32:52 Private vs. Public Sector Transportation Solutions 35:16 Real-World Applications and Case Studies 40:01 Overcoming Skepticism and Educating Stakeholders 43:45 Induced Demand: A Positive Perspective on Urban Transportation 48:13 Future Vision: Scaling and Real Estate Integration Website: https://swyftcities.com/ Newsletter: https://swyftcities.us10.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=04dae35275c37b51b049b89c9&id=349fe9a899 Twitter: https://x.com/jeralpo  Twitter: https://x.com/swyftcities LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jposkey/ CONNECT WITH AUSTIN TUNNELL: Newsletter: https://playbook.buildingculture.com/  https://www.instagram.com/austintunnell/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/austin-tunnell-2a41894a/  https://twitter.com/AustinTunnell https://www.buildingculture.com/  https://www.instagram.com/buildingculture/  https://twitter.com/build_culture  https://www.facebook.com/BuildCulture/ SPONSORS: Thank you so much to the sponsors of The Building Culture Podcast!
