Wired to Build

Nick Caravella

The construction industry doesn't have an innovation problem. It has an understanding problem.Every conversation on Wired to Build goes deeper than the tool, the trend, or the technology — into the systems behind the project, the humans shaping them, and the friction that makes both of them real.Nick Caravella is a registered architect and construction technologist who left working in the industry to work on it.If you've ever stood in the middle of a project and thought there has to be a better way to understand this — you're in the right place.Wired to Build is powered by Avicado
