Behind the Scenes of Architecture School

Archinect, one of our favorite daily reads, has come through once again with the goods by offering up a backstage look at the making of Architecture School, the only reality show we’ve ever eagerly awaited, which premieres tonight on the Sundance Channel. The program, if you somehow hadn’t caught wind of it, is a semi-documentary/competition thing following a group of Tulane architecture students who are trying to build replacement housing in New Orleans. The first half of Archinect’s excellent feature gives you the whole rundown on the program itself, but quickly follows with the real meat and potatoes: an interview with the show’s creators, Stan Bertheaud and “architect-turned-director” Michael Seiditch. If you’re as eager for the show as we, it’s the perfect buffer between now and when it finally starts airing tonight, and if you hadn’t heard of it, consider it your opportunity to catch up with the rest of us.
