Hey everyone! I’m a 26-year-old architect based in London, and I’m about to get married to my best friend of 20 years. Yep, she’s been in my life since we were kids, and now we’re tying the knot next year.

I work in sustainable architecture (think green buildings, smart cities, all that eco-friendly good stuff). But today, I’m more interested in chatting about the stuff behind the work: life, love, and how to make it all work—especially when you’re balancing an intense career with a wedding that’s somehow both exciting and terrifying.

    Do you think CAD drafter(ie not engineers, not architects) are useless nowadays ? I ask that as a draftman. I feel my role is redundant. The engineer sketch something, send this to me, I put it in revit or autocad, then print on pdf I send back to the professional.

      Haha, well, I’d say anything where she’s in control. There’s just something about her being on top. It’s definitely a favorite. But honestly, I think it’s more about the chemistry than the position.

      I started off with a couple of internships during uni, just to get hands-on experience and start building my portfolio. After graduating, I focused on finding a firm that aligned with my interest in sustainable design and urban planning. It took some time, but eventually, a small firm in East London took me on as a junior. I started with the basics, but over time, I took on more responsibility, and that’s where I am now.

    Considering how old our civilisations are, the traditions and livelihoods of our fellow person, the history of all that is human and the understanding to human of all that is not…
