IN FRAME

From late nights in the studio to early mornings on site - the transition is never as smooth as we imagine. From Crits to Clients is a conversation with a recent graduate navigating the in-between space where ideas meet reality, confidence meets uncertainty, and learning doesn’t stop - it shifts. This episode reflects on what school gives you, what it doesn’t, and how you begin to find your voice beyond the crit room.This is not just about architecture - it’s about becoming.

Before the first line is drawn, architecture has already begun.In Episode 2 of In Frame, The Invisible Brief, we explore the forces that shape architecture long before design starts. Budgets, regulations, culture, climate, material availability, and social expectations quietly frame what becomes possible. These conditions rarely appear on drawings, yet they influence every space we create.This episode reflects on the hidden systems that guide architectural decisions — revealing that what we design is often already shaped by context, circumstance, and the realities surrounding the project.

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embedded in design processes, the question of authorship in architecture is being reshaped.In this episode, we explore what it means to create in an age where ideas can be generated, iterated, and visualised by machines. Is authorship still tied to the individual, or is it becoming distributed across tools, systems, and collaborators?This conversation reflects on creativity, control, and the evolving role of the architect in a technologically mediated design landscape.
