HIGH PROFILE - What do Architects think?
“Most of my colleagues have different interests and therefore prefer different magazines. The only one everyone reads regularly is the RIBA Journal. Which I think is quite good as well. They have managed to find a blanace between promoting good architecture but always having CPD related articles as well. ”
Chartered Architect at Purcell Miller Tritton LLP
“I too read RIBA journal - free with my membership. I always trawel my way throught the trade stuff too in it or other at hand. Looking at tech stuff and other specific items related to my current task. Generally, magazines are for when I take a break from the computer or the weekend.”
“Yes, RIBA Journal is OK. Building Design used to be OK but it is a shadow of its former self. BD used to have a sound technical agenda but it now seems full of gossip which is tedious in the extreme. The Architects’ Journal used to be good, but I dropped it when it started to fill up with self absorbed journalistic tittle-tattle.”
