Episode Description from the Publisher

Host Jake Fabish sits down with architect Jason Hoppe to explore his passion for details, collaboration, and creating additions and remodels that "feel right." They discuss translating SketchUp concepts into construction-ready drawings, proportion and trim as the soul of classic architecture, balancing modern needs with historic fabric, and the importance of community among small-practice architects. Jason shares his path from Midwestern practice to Louisville, his approach to human-centered design, preferred materials and priorities for lasting quality, and how peer groups and collaboration support better projects and client outcomes.
