For me it's always a pleasure listening to Rory Sutherland. He is like a dormant volcano of ideas. Once you get the eruptions started with a good question the non-stop flow of ideas is endless.
The conversation on the technology is true... it all goes back to the consumer, but I've had homes built with central vacuum systems for flats, underfloor heating to the extent of heating the garage floor, food hoists and lifts, glass walled pools, and in South Kensington we are using Duravits Sensowash toilets which if Rory knew about it would flip out --- they have their own remotes for a rainbow of functions. About the flat roof and the fear of it shows how retrograde and backward building technology is at site level in England. Flat roofs are de rigueur in most European modern architecture. I leave you with this quote from Jonathan Meades who for a non-architect places his finger on the sores of the English architectural milieu: " Britain is blessed with professional architects who can achieve something beyond another Stevenage. Nothing stands in their way save crass politicians, educationally subnormal planners and moderately talented amateurs seductively ushering them back into the recent past."
People who choose a draftsman, instead of an architect, to design a building should be charged with crimes against humanity. Full disclosure- I am not an architect.
I added a submission so it will be automatically skipped if you install the *sponsorblock* extension to google chrome. That extension will skip many annoying parts in ALL videos you watch on UA-cam.
I could listen to Rory all day. His psycho-logical concept is amazing and his ideas simply keep flowing..

I’d hardly call him dormant haha. He’s an active mega volcano of ideas.
Brilliant mind. Fascinating. Hope he won't get heart attack due to the weight. We need that guy for many more years.
🤣
RORY? AMAZING.
Absolutely brilliant
