In this episode of Design Futurecast, Maria Lorena Lehman explores how to accelerate and heighten architectural design workflows — not by producing more, but by thinking deeper. Learn how to engage sharper design intelligence that allows for strategic decision-making on the fly, solving converging problems while unveiling unforeseen opportunities. This episode introduces the concept of real-time futurepacing: designing with tools that simulate not just form, but future occupant impact, economic ROI, and long-term adaptability. Through a vivid scenario of a near-future architecture firm, listeners experience how the integration of intelligence, narrative, and emerging tools can transform design into a fluid, multi-layered practice. For architects ready to elevate their workflow, this episode offers a powerful glimpse into what it means to design at the speed of insight.
