The Drowsy Architect
Architecture stories to sleep to.
Each episode tells the story of one of history's most remarkable buildings — not as a lecture, but as a slow, quiet journey through stone and time. We start with why it was built, who built it, and what the world looked like when it rose from the earth. Then we walk through it, room by room, arch by arch, letting the details unfold at their own pace.
The narration is gentle. The pace is unhurried. The music is soft. If you fall asleep halfway through, that's not a failure — that's the point.
New episodes every week.
From the Colosseum to the Sagrada Familia, from Notre-Dame to the Taj Mahal — each episode is a two-hour journey through one building's entire life story.
Narrated by George. Written and produced with care, research, and a deep love for the buildings that shaped our world.
