In this podcast episode, we talked with Ruth Wilson – a hugely well-regarded leader within the Architecture sector, Board Member & Principal at Architectus. Architectus are a leading national Architecture practice with offices in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Brisbane, and Adelaide.
Ruth talks about the early stages of her career and why she got into Architecture. We spoke about how Architecture changed over the years, some of the projects she and Architectus have been part of, the process of building a client relationship, taking that scope and description of a project and turning it into something by way of an Architectural process.
We also discuss about what student Architects to look forward to, some of the opportunities that present in the Architectural space, and some of the enjoyable elements like getting through the qualifications and becoming an Architect.
Amongst other things, in this podcast we discussed:
- Challenges for new Architects coming into the industry
- What’s exciting for the industry over the next post-pandemic years
- Client relationships and developing a scope and project from a concept
- The ‘Human Experience’ of buildings and designing them to fulfill the need
- The growth and development of the Architectus and their 21 years of operation
