Architizer is a social networking platform for architects and anyone interested in architecture. Architizer, founded by Matthias Hollwich, is an architectural open-source website displaying a “new way for architects to interact, show their work, and find clients. It is an open community created by architects for architects.”
The site allows users to create their own profiles, post their work and even track the progress of others in virtual real time. Kushner explains that while the site revolves around a specialized profession it’s not designed exclusively for the people working within the field, though it does include an interactive job board and a list of open competitions for professional architects.
You’ll be able to view different projects by clicking the thumbnails on the Google Powered map found on Architizer’s main page. You can find detailed information about a building that interests you which includes materials used, location and other information that architects and clients might find useful.
On the site, it is possible to learn all about firms the world over and get in touch with them should you be looking into ways of furthering your career. Besides, the site has a “jobs” section that is augmented by one where competitions are held. Architizer will surely provide you with the inspiration and detailed information about different structures created by different people from different countries.
