What can you do with a degree in architecture? Where might it take you? What kind of challenges could you address? Architects After Architecture reframes architecture as a uniquely versatile way of acting on the world, far beyond that of designing buildings.
Join Rory Hyde (Associate Professor of Architecture, University of Melbourne and Design Advocate for Mayor of London) in conversation with Mat Ward (Uro Publications)as they discuss a future of architecture that is diverse and engaged, expanding the limits of the discipline, and offering new paths forward in times of crisis.

About the book
In Architects after Architecture, we meet forty practitioners through profiles, case studies, and interviews, who have used their architectural training in new and resourceful ways to tackle the climate crisis, work with refugees, advocate for diversity, start tech companies, become leading museum curators, tackle homelessness, draft public policy, become developers, design videogames, shape public discourse, and much more.
