Episode 253: Architecture, storytelling and AI with Bowerbird Co-Founders Nic Granleese and Ben Morgan

Talking Architecture & Design

In this episode of Talking Architecture & Design, host Clémence Carayol is joined by Ben Morgan and Nic Granleese, Co-Founders of Bowerbird, a platform that’s reshaping how architectural projects are shared with the media.

With backgrounds in publishing and architecture, Morgan and Granleese created Bowerbird to make architectural storytelling more accessible. Their goal: to simplify the way architects pitch their work and connect directly with journalists.

The conversation explores how the relationship between architecture and media is shifting, particularly with the rise of AI. From writing tools to image generation, technology is changing how architects document, visualise and share their work.

They also look at the role of editorial quality in an algorithm-driven world, and how architects can adapt by embracing storytelling as part of their practice.

Finally, Morgan and Granleese share how Bowerbird is evolving to support the architectural community in a fast-changing media landscape.
