What is Architizer

What is Architizer? Architizer is one of the the most prominent, up-and-coming social media platforms of 2010. Unleashed in second quarter of 2009, Architizer set its sights on syncing the architectural community with those actively seeking a firm that fits all of their aesthetic requirements. Within a fiscal year, Architizer was able to capture the hearts of the social community by creating a niche platform capable of laying out a firm’s portfolio embedded with geolocation-based services, and an in-depth meta tagging system allowing for a full functional, dynamic archive of key terms for a truly enriched search function.

Architizer is the first Web 2.0 network to provide Architects with a truly powerful voice. Included in the community itself is a linked-in like job section allowing for both job seekers and employers the opportunity to align visions and better the company. This is a unique feature to have in such a distinct market.

Moreover, the social community within Architizer thrives off friendly design competition.  There are constantly new challenges being posted, enticing firms to actively participate and put their names on the map. In some cases, these are put on by those seeking the work of architects, as a measure of showing which firm may best capture the true needs of the client.

With their powerful relationships with major Architectural publications like Dwell, and Architectural Digest - Architizer will do nothing but to continue to build momentum in the new year. As their community strengthens, their overall presence in the market will continue to strengthen the voice of Architects across the country - an asset this community has been looking desperately for some time now.
