There's been so much going on lately in the world of Architecture.

Show Notes

There's been so much going on lately in the world of Architecture.  

Working remotely in professional practice is no longer impossible to implement and hybrid working is arguably here to stay.

At the same time, communication and content creation online within Architecture has evolved at a rapid pace.

Earlier in the year FAF (Future Architects Front) raised awareness of the ongoing woes and realities of entering the Architecture profession from a student to becoming a young professional.  

Lately in the news, there is a reshuffle within the RIBA headquarters.

It's been a strange two years, however, I don't see us going back. Is this now the new normal?

Given all that's going on, who are the next generation of Architects and what does that look like to be part of it?

This Wednesday at 1pm I am joined by the awesome Hamza Shaikh, trailblazer Architect in the making and content creator of the Two Worlds Design podcast as well as his exponentially growing Youtube Channel where we will discuss LIVE the next generation of Architects.

Stephen Drew

Hello! I’m Stephen Drew, Founder of the Architecture Social—an online community and resource hub dedicated to helping professionals in Architecture, Design, Development, and Real Estate advance their careers. I’m here to connect you with insights, tools, and opportunities that lead to meaningful growth, whether you’re just starting out or ready to take that next big step.

What is Architecture Social?

It is hard to get a job in architecture. We exist to help you get there. Hosted by Stephen Drew, Architecture Social is the unfiltered guide to the UK Built Environment. We decode the realities of the industry, provide actionable cheat codes for your career, and bridge the communication gap between the drafting board and the boardroom.

Whether you are a Part I assistant trying to survive your first role, a Part III architect managing complex procurement, or a Practice Director fighting tight margins and adapting to the Building Safety Act, this podcast is your central node of intelligence. We strip away the aesthetic gatekeeping and toxic positivity to talk about the actual mechanics of the business.

Expect honest conversations about salary realities, portfolio strategies, hiring economics, and the true experiences of the people actively shaping the profession.

No fluff, just the reality of practice.
