    The HVAC Whisperer: What Architects Get Wrong—and How AI Might Finally Fix It

    Ever wonder what your mechanical engineer really thinks about your last-minute design changes? In this candid and surprisingly fun episode of Check Set, host Brian Swem sits down with Nate Van Heukelum, a mechanical engineer at Millies Engineering, to get real about the daily chaos of building design—from duct sizing drama to documentation nightmares, and what it's really like working across disciplines in today’s architecture world. Together they dig into: Why architects keep forgetting about building performance (and why it matters)How collaboration has shifted from “pass the baton” to “just invite me to the meeting”The biggest communication breakdowns between engineers and architectsWhat it’s like juggling 20+ projects while your notes live across OneNote, email, Teams, and maybe a dreamWhy AI tools like Redmark could finally give engineers and designers time back (and sanity)Bonus: Nate shares his favorite project horror stories, the soft skills no one talks about, and what advice he’d give to engineers just starting out. 🎯 This is the episode architects didn’t know they needed—and engineers will feel deeply seen.

    From Construction Sites to AI Architect: Alex Mead on Redmarq, Technical Debt, and the Future of Design

    🧠 Podcast Episode Description: AI isn’t just generating art or helping you write emails—it’s quietly transforming how architects work, communicate, and design the built world. In this episode of CheckSet, we sit down with Alex Mead, a former construction laborer turned systems PhD and AI engineer, now helping build Redmark, a next-gen tool for architectural communication and collaboration. Alex breaks down: Why so many AI tools feel like toys—and where the real power liesHow Redmark is streamlining meeting notes, decision tracking, and client feedbackWhat “technical debt” means for architecture firms (and why it’s coming for your workflows)Why AI won’t replace architects—but the architects using AI mightHow privacy, trust, and mentorship are being reshaped by intelligent toolsIf you're curious (or skeptical) about what AI means for your job, your firm, and your future—this conversation is a must-listen. 🎙️ “AI will not replace architects. But it will change who thrives.”
