Preserving the Soul in Architecture | Eleven28 Architecture

In this episode of Built By Insights, we talk with Renée Golobic from Eleven 28 Architecture about how she found her way into the field of Construction and Architecture and what shaped her along the way. Renée grew up surrounded by engineers, discovered she loved both math and hands‑on creativity, and started in the building side of construction before becoming an Architect. She shares what draws her to residential work, why older homes matter to her, and how she helps homeowners see possibilities they may have missed. We also get into what it’s like to be a woman on job sites, how she builds trust with clients and builders, how cost should be transparent and why every project ends up being its own learning experience. This conversation focuses on the craft of architecture, problem‑solving, and creating homes with personality and care.

Building Homes, Rebuilding Lives | Homes For Our Troops | Built By Insights

On today’s episode of Built By Insights, Matt Krueger sits down with Bill Ivey, Executive Director of Homes For Our Troops which is an organization that builds specially adapted, custom homes for post-9/11 veterans who were severely injured in Iraq and Afghanistan, homes designed beyond ADA standards, which restore independence, dignity, and long-term stability for these veterans at no cost to them. Bill Ivy shares his 31-year journey in the U.S. Army, his transition into serving wounded veterans after retirement, and why the mission of Homes For Our Troops continues to drive him more than a decade later.  Matt and Bill dive deep into why these homes are single-story, how more than 40 adaptive features are integrated into every build, and why elements like roll-under kitchens, and accessible bathrooms are necessities for a healthy life. The conversation also highlights Built By Krueger’s completion of their fourth Homes For Our Troops home, the challenges of building in places like Oak Creek, Colorado, and why Homes For Our Troops remains connected to each veteran long after the keys are handed over.
