On the other hand, I found some very interesting article here. Architects are facing a silen war? Ah, very interesting. Ah, so most people don’t understand architects’ jobs, architects aren’t getting paid very much, they feel like their work is being undervalued. And the verdict? Although they are smart, they are not as well-paid as one might think, but the solution is for them to get better at marketing themselves. They are part of both the problem and the solution.

Oh, and there’s very interesting comments on this first article.

The story behind the diamond marketing strategy was very interesting here. There was a deliberate attempt to create a scarcity of supply, and generate demand. The plan to generate demand? Market diamonds as something not just for the rich, but for everyone at their marriage. Ha, tricky method to generate a mass market. And nowadays, people hardly even question that the association of diamonds with love and engagement are all merely but an artificial one, courtesy of an ads marketing agency.

Now, that gives me an idea. What were you saying about the average homeowner not caring about having a smart home? Let’s take a different spin off of that idea. Sure, you’re not going to be able to impose such an idea on the average homeowner, that’s out of the picture. Let’s target the non-average home owner that is specifically looking for investments in home-building that lead to a home that can be better turned into a smart home. Now you’re talking a different story. Now you’re talking a story of architects that have a listed specialty in smart home design and construction. Sure, it’s not ideal for the fact that you can’t bring the lowest level standards up to that level, but it’s still better than the alternatives of writing off the idea as impossible and giving up.
