For this week\'s podcast, Paul\\xa0and\\xa0Amelia\\xa0spoke with architect\\xa0Barbara Bestor, of\\xa0Bestor Architecture, about growing her firm and Los Angeles\' design influence, prompted by one of her recently acquired projects, a renovation of Lautner\'s Silvertop house. Next up, something\'s rotten in the state of New Jersey:\\xa0Donna\\xa0and\\xa0Ken\\xa0join in to discuss\\xa0the local-beefs surrounding the new Michael Graves School of Architecture, whose prioritization of hand-drawing is inciting criticism from the neighboring New Jersey Institute of Technology.

We also consider Julia Ingalls\' Material Witness\\xa0series, and how cinematography and set design can drive narrative (and architectural) themes. To conclude, we briefly touch on the recently revealed renderings of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Arts in Chicago, designed by MAD Architects.
