About this conversation

Elevating Designs & Empowering Architects with Technical Guidance, ft. Dieter Bentley-Gockmann at EPR Architects

Good technical guidance is not just about making drawings compliant. It protects design quality, safety, ethics, sustainability and the people who eventually use the building.

Stephen Drew speaks with Dieter Bentley-Gockmann of EPR Architects about technical leadership, professional standards, fire and life safety, Part III mentoring and why technical expertise needs more respect inside architecture practices.

The conversation covers:

What technical leadership looks like inside a large architecture practice

How regulations, fire safety and accessibility shape better projects

Why ethical behaviour and professional standards matter

Each topic opens its knowledge hub with jobs, people, courses and more episodes.

    Hello everyone, it's a Monday special! That's right, you saw me on Friday, you're gonna see me again on this Monday. Have you got your technical drawings ready? Are they pinned up on the wall? If you've been fudging stuff in Revit, we're gonna know about it. Only joking! And you can enjoy your lunch here in the safe zone.
