As AI adoption in the job application process surges, I pit myself against four leading AI tools to craft a cover letter for a fictional architecture job. After a 'spot the human' challenge among Archinect's editors and our readers, I share my thoughts on both the experience of using AI to prepare a cover letter and where I will and will not use it in the future.
Manhattan: So much to do, so little time! To make New York City's most densely populated borough more accessible for out-of-towners and residents alike, we've asked Julia Gamolina to host today's Archinect City Guide. Beyond her role as the Founder and Editor-in-Chief of the award-winning Madame Architect platform, she is also an Associate Principal at Ennead Architects' NYC studio and a Visiting Assistant Professor at Pratt Institute. In this City Guide, Gamolina reveals her favorite Manhattan spots for Eastern European treats, tasty cocktails, and the best parks for picnics and walks. Are you a Manhattan local with your own go-to spots? Or have a city you think we should cover next? Share your thoughts, suggestions, and favorite places in the comments.

In true Pacific Northwest spirit, Brown has several authentic and rooted spots in and around Portland to recommend for architects and designers visiting the city. Is he keeping it weird? Let's find out. Are you a Portland local with your own go-to spots? Or have a city you think we should cover next? Share your thoughts, suggestions, and favorite places in the comments.

Thanet Parkway station opened on 31 July 2023, and promptly broke quite a few people’s brains. I can remember my Twitter feed (as was) being awash with commentators deriding its appearance. Even now, a simple web search will quickly turn up adjectives like “ugly”, “hideous”, “bloody ugly” and “incredibly dull-looking”. Although I assume the post […]
Cities are where we can make significant impacts, comparatively quickly, to help fight climate change.
In Echo Park, Los Angeles, across from Echo Park Lake, stands a building that begs to be noticed—a colossal, white structure with archways and an enormous concrete dome that’s been described as “half Roman Coliseum, half Parisian opera house.” Though some might say it looks more like a concrete flying saucer landed on top of
