http://purplecheeze.blogspot.com/2005/11/land-is-key.html
Exploring an alternative to our developer-driven built environment. Sunday, November 27, 2005. Land is the Key. Jonathan Segal brough up an interesting opportunity that exists in the struggle for architects to become there own developers. The opportunity to buy and design on land that now one else wants. This includes unbuildable land, strange shaped sites, and sites with existing buildings. These are areas which developers stay away from and are opportunities to get into the process. Scott A. Edwards.

architects as developers
http://purplecheeze.blogspot.com/2005/09/we-are-interested-in-how-architects.html
Exploring an alternative to our developer-driven built environment. Thursday, September 22, 2005. We are interested in how architects can take on a more defining role in the development process in order to have greater influence on the shaping of our built environment, economically, socially and physically. Does this imply a more business-related role for the architect or a greater degree of collaboration with the business world? Posted by PurpleCheeze at 11:06 AM. 11:00 PM, October 18, 2005.

architects as developers: The Otherside...
http://purplecheeze.blogspot.com/2005/10/otherside.html
Exploring an alternative to our developer-driven built environment. Thursday, October 27, 2005. Are Architects as Developers even appropriate? Architecture is generally refered to as the only form of art where we have to wait for someone to come along and ask us to produce. It is a service oriented profession, we are entrusted to solve a problem or fulfill an aspiration and we are then compensated for our work. Should architects then wait for work to come in or go out and get it? 9:10 AM, October 28, 2005.

Exploring an alternative to our developer-driven built environment. Thursday, October 27, 2005. Here's what aspiring developers are learning about AIA's standard architect-owner contract:.
