I’m something of a closet architecture fan and though my drawing skills are similar to those of a four year old, I’ve learned to appreciate the practice and the craft of building buildings.

Architizer is recognizing the impact of technology with a new award Architecture + Technology and over the next few months they’re showcasing three blue chip architecture firms using Surface Pro. In their own words, they’re “amazed by how agile the device is at bridging the gap between tablet portability and desktop horsepower” and are watching architects get the benefits of a tablet with pen input to use Adobe Creative Suite, Rhino, Revit, and many other apps.
