God's Great Design for Marriage : Luke 16:18 : Pastor Raef Chenery : 02-09-25 by Park Community Church

Whether you are designing a 100,000 sq. ft. mansion or a charming beach cottage, the principles of good design are always in play. On today's podcast, Paul McClean shares how he loves working with clients of all sizes to design a home that provides the backdrop to living a beautiful life.   BACK STORY Paul McClean is a member of the American Institute of Architects and is a licensed architect in multiple states.  McClean grew up in Ireland, where he attended the Dublin Institute of Technology graduating with honors in architecture in 1994.  During his time at the university, he traveled extensively and worked for award winning architectural practices in London, Dublin and Sydney, Australia.  He also had the opportunity to work with the Monument Service of Ireland sketching and surveying many of the historic castles and monasteries dotted throughout the Irish landscape.  In addition, he spent a year working with a firm in Dublin on museums and art galleries in the national capital.  After graduation, he arrived in Southern California and worked for various local architectural firms before establishing McClean Design in 2000. McClean feels very fortunate these last few years and has managed to complete many new homes.  He has always enjoyed working with different people and is constantly amazed by the different and varied backgrounds of his clients.  He has been able to establish lasting relationships with high quality builders and other design professionals helping to ensure that his entire team is committed to realizing the dreams and aspirations of his clients.  Design is more than a job to McClean. It is something he has wanted to do ever since he was a little boy and feels lucky enough to be able to practice today and hopefully for a long time!        Website: mccleandesign.com Instagram: @mccleandesign.com TikTok: @mccleandesign   SUBSCRIBE TO ICONIC HOUR If you enjoyed today's podcast, I'd be so appreciative if you'd take two minutes to subscribe, rate and review ICONIC HOUR.

If you only choose one thing to focus on in 2025 let it be this: stop 'people pleasing' your clients! We're used to the adage that the customer is always right, but I'm here to tell you that to build a sustainable, successful business means not being at the complete beck and call of your clients. After years of hearing stories from fellow designers and my own experience, I've decided on a few approaches that help us avoid bending over backward for clients (which typically does more harm than good anyway)! Don't run around in circles making yourself crazy for your clients! In this episode, I share some advice, tips, and responses that you can use when establishing healthy boundaries with your clients ensuring that you always come across like the professional you are because you deserve to be in control of your business and as the expert to call the shots.   Episode Resources: Episode 67 How to deal with unhappy clients Episode 49 - An Interview with my clients: Why having a process made them choose me   Download our Free Resources ➡️ Pre-qualify your clients with my Discovery Call Script ➡️ Stay confident from beginning to end with my Consultation Checklist ➡️ Looking for a quick infusion of cash?

The husband-and-wife team of Brooke and Steve Giannetti are nothing if not multitalented. He's architect, she's a designer, but together the two of them have done a little bit of everything: from opening a shop in small-town Tennessee to creating homes for A-List celebrities to caring for a menagerie of sheep, donkeys, goats and highland cattle on their farm, Patina Meadow.  On this episode of the podcast, the Giannettis speak with host Dennis Scully about how working with animals informs both their lives and their business, how they keep clients excited over the course of a long project, and why designers should be curious about new technology—not fearful.This episode is sponsored by Loloi and Annie SelkeLINKSPatina Home & GardenDennis ScullyBusiness of Home

On today's episode of Architectette we are joined by Ming Thompson and Christina Cho Yoo, the founders of Atelier Cho Thompson (ACT), a New Haven and San Francisco based multidisciplinary practice working between architecture, interiors, graphics, and strategy.  ACT's work frequently blurs the boundaries between typologies, as they draw inspiration from their work in schools, museums, offices, restaurants, and homes around the world. The firm has been awarded numerous national and regional design honors and has been featured in Metropolis, Architect Magazine, Interior Design Magazine, and at the Venice Architecture Biennale.  We talk about:  - The origin story of ACT and how Ming and Christina were inspired by a Parking Day collaboration to start their own firm to pursue projects that complemented their diverse sets of skills and passions.  - Entrepreneurship and Motherhood: Ming and Christina talk about establishing a business while growing their families and how even though they themselves didn't take maternity leave, we talk about how each founder works hard to make sure their employees are able to do so. - The catalyst for expanding their San Francisco practice with an office in New Haven, CT. We talk about virtual collaboration, expanding in a new market, and how the firm was well-prepared for the hybrid shift that caught so many businesses off guard during the pandemic.  - We end by discussing Ming and Christina's work to advance women and the AAPI community, their favorite projects, impactful pro bono work, public art installations, and how the firm has established and expanded their reputation for gorgeous, design-rich spaces Links:  ACT's Website: www.chothompson.com Architectette Podcast Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.architectette.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with the pod on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Instagram (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@architectette⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠), and TikTok (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@architectette⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) Exclusive Content on our Newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.architectette.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support the podcast on Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠https://patreon.com/Architectette?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=join_link⁠⁠ Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠AlexGrohl⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pixabay⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Workplace stress is something most of us will experience at some point. But there are some fields where the stakes are that much higher. The decisions made in a pinch by airline pilots, doctors, and others can literally be life or death.Switching from a well established and sometimes dull routine to immediate focus, clarity and understanding requires years of training and experience - and nowhere is that more true than in nuclear power. The vast majority of the time it's completely safe, but it's fair to say complacency and human decision making under stress has caused its fair share of disasters over the years. The art of keeping human clarity on point and enabling us to make decisions under stress with the help of technology (rather than it making the situation worse) is called Human-Centered Design. It's a principle which points us in the right direction and assists us when we need to make judgement calls - and is surprisingly uncommon in many industries. Joining us today is Dr. Claire Blackett, Principal Nuclear Research Scientist from the Institute for Energy Technologies and an expert in Human-Centered Design. We'll be discussing what other organizations can learn about alleviating stress and enabling good decision making through positive design principles - and more.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organisations and what we can learn from it.We'd love to hear your one minute review of books which have changed your year!

God made it explicit that His intention for us from the beginning was for us to become His image-bearers - people who reflect His image to the rest of the world. He defined our destiny and placed it inside of us. His intention for us was that we discover our destiny before we built our lives. We need destiny to help keep us focused and help prevent us from being sidetracked.

There are times in this journey when we must make the decision to leave behind our old mindsets and ways of thinking and move forward with something new. We cannot continue to live parts of our lives in foreign kingdoms - ruled by addiction, depression and negative self-image. Sometimes we need a revolution which is about dying to the old and resurrecting something new. We must step out from under the authority and influence of sinful kingdoms and get established in God's Kingdom.

God had a great design for each of us personally and corporately. However, many Christians have never taken the time to seek God to learn of His plan or design for them, either personally or corporately. The moment we were born again, we not only walked into a relationship with Christ as our Savior, but we became called to identify with Him as our Lord. We are to build our lives on the Rock, the solid foundation. Christ is going to do something in you so that He can be seen in you.

God designed man to live from a place of dominion. Therefore, we must discover the purpose for each part of our construction so that we can fulfill God's strategy for our lives and live in Kingdom Consciousness. God always intended for man to elect to live in relationship with Him, and from this comes blessings. Because man was given this position, he was given the prerogative of choice. But with gifting comes responsibility.

What does your office design, decor and layout say about you and the quality of services that you offer? Sadly, many chiropractors' offices are outdated, run down and poorly maintained and they wonder why patients don't follow through with care. Think about it for a moment. Would you trust someone to maintain your spine if they couldn't even maintain their practice? Probably not. In today's episode I'm talking to interior designer Carolyn Boldt about how you can use design to improve patient flow, attract new patients and save you time and money. Carolyn and her husband Scott are the only architectural, interior, construction and consulting firm that specialises in helping chiropractors with the design and layout of their offices. Carolyn shares the impact that light, colour, sound, artwork and more have on the profitability of our practices. This episode is a must listen.  After you've finished this episode be sure to head over to https://www.chiropracticofficedesign.com/adio and be sure to download the great resources that Carolyn and her team have put together for marketing your practice listeners.

Today, thanks to chiropractic care, Carolyn's daughter still has her tonsils. The impact of that care on her daughter's life would make Carolyn a lifelong advocate of holistic healthcare. In 2004, Carolyn and her husband co-founded CrossFields as a design-build firm in Atlanta, and in 2011 they changed their focus to improving the public's perception of alternative medicine, and highlighting the power of holistic healthcare. CrossFields has helped hundreds of practitioners across the country expand their practices and reach higher levels of success by maximizing space, attracting and retaining patients, and saving money.

In an age that seems dominated by conflict, it's important that we step back and remind ourselves of our amazing capacity to work together.  And there's perhaps no greater example of that than the modern city.  From the smallest details to the large-scale infrastructure, every piece of a city was thought about, designed, and built by someone to make one large living thing we could all inhabit. When it all works well, it enables our society to work well, too. Roman Mars has spent his career chronicling these bits of human ingenuity that we so often take for granted—things like the utility codes, the curb cuts, the traffic signals, and much more. As host of the 99% Invisible Podcast and, with Kurt Kohlstedt, co-author of the book The 99% Invisible City: A Field Guide to the Hidden World of Everyday Design, his work challenges all of us to look up and around, and to think about the how and the why of design around the world in a different way.
