    Did you know CRAN produces YouTube videos that help demystify the process of working with an architect on a residential project?


    Here's our latest video:

    The Architect as Conductor
    http://network.aia.org/cran/Home http://www.youtube.com/CRANtv Construction is complicated. It requires many people to take an idea from concept to reality: a client with means and vision, an architect with the creativity to interpret and give form to that vision, and a builder with the skills to build it.

    Re videos;  will Houzz allow CRAN to post the videos about working with an architect?  It'd be a great platform to address that topic with the homeowner.

    Sue, that's a great idea. We haven't broached the topic with Houzz, but it's a very good idea. We have been talking internally about other ways to share the videos around online.
