Marc, Ray, and Dan sit down with Talia Cannistra, founder of boutique architecture firm Studio Cann. The conversation covers the real challenges of adaptive reuse projects, including hidden structural surprises, extended permitting timelines, and the importance of early contractor collaboration. Talia also breaks down how architecture firms structure their fees — fixed vs. hourly — and why architects are often the first to feel slowdowns in the construction economy, making them a leading indicator of broader market cycles. Finally, the guys run through a spirited round of "overrated, underrated, or appropriately rated".
