Behind the Design at Wade Weissmann ArchitectureTom’s residential architectural journey began in 1994 with an internship at RWA Architects in Cincinnati and would take him to Chicago to work under Thomas Beeby, (learning classical and traditional principles and details), and subsequently Stuart Cohen and Julie Hacker, (where traditional details were fused with a tailored, transitional design approach).Following his time at Cohen and Hacker, Tom formed his own practice, at which time he coincidentally met Wade Weissmann, though it would be several years before their paths crossed again. In the interim, Tom took a position with Lichten Craig Architecture + Interiors (now Craig and CO.) working on interior condo renovations in Chicago. In the summer of 2015, Tom reconnected with Wade and made the decision to relocate to Milwaukee.This week on EntreArchitect Podcast, Behind the Design at Wade Weissmann Architecture with Tom Wynn.Learn more about Tom at Wade Weissmann Architecture.Referenced in this EpisodeEA323: How Earned Trust Leads to Your Best Work [podcast]Please visit Our Platform SponsorsDetailed is an original podcast by ARCAT that features architects, engineers, builders, and manufacturers who share their insight and expertise as they highlight some of the most complex, interesting, and oddest building conditions that they have encountered… and the ingenuity it took to solve them.

His comprehensive body of work spans a wide variety of project types and sizes. Informed by his experience working with Herbert Beckhard (a former partner of the Bauhaus master, Marcel Breuer), Matthew subscribes to the philosophy that the strength of any architectural project lies in its unique set of components: Variations in the type, scale, scope, history and budget of a project influence innovation and design elements, thereby generating a uniquely specific response to each design challenge. Matthew believes that architecture is a holistic practice that should be environmentally, socially and financially sustainable. He challenges himself and the firm to consider each project in terms of 'the bigger picture', and to assimilate that understanding into relevant architecture that is an extension of the client's vision paired with the architect's talent. This week on EntreArchitect Podcast, Pushing Beyond the Boundaries of Architecture at Nomi Design with Melody Farris Jackson and Matthew Brooks.Learn more about Melody and Matthew at Nomi Design, or follow them on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.Please visit Our Platform SponsorsDetailed is an original podcast by ARCAT that features architects, engineers, builders, and manufacturers who share their insight and expertise as they highlight some of the most complex, interesting, and oddest building conditions that they have encountered… and the ingenuity it took to solve them.
