Jo Petroni is an architect based in rural France, and she is the founder of Permarchitecture. She believes in "listening to your land," which is a way to observe the land where we live and build with curiosity and humility—and ultimately reconnect with nature. Jo is also an illustrator and climate change communicator. She is a co-creator of and contributor to the Carbon Almanac and she has an "Epistolary" of letters to imaginary friends published on Substack.
Jo and show host Neal discussed how Jo aspired to be an architect since she was a young child, the adventurous path that led her to her current home in medieval village in France, and how she built her business over Zoom meetings while living as a digital nomad. They go in depth about Jo's approach to architecture—incorporating sustainability and regenerative principles—and how to design while maintaining a deep connection to place. They also talk about the challenges of implementing regenerative and permaculture principles, and the importance of public communication about sustainability.
