Whoever said if you do what you love you won’t work a day of your life was likely not an architect. It is arduous, it is ever challenging and it is exactly what I want to be doing. A perfect harmony of art and science. There is a shared vision here at JFA about what architecture can and should be which keeps my fire alive. We face many challenges in the industry, as a society and on a global ecological scale. We cannot change the world overnight or through architecture alone, but we can strive in our practice to meet the goal that Gandhi set, and be the change that we want to see.
