How I Started… and Where I Am After 25 Years in Architecture

On this day 25 years ago, I started at an architectural practice in Sydney ‪@francisjonescarpenterstudio‬ My name is Andrew, and this is my journey of 25 years in architecture from fresh graduate to working on concept and competition work, to project work, and then specialising in facades and then returning circle to concept and competition work. I might have done some other stuff in between. 00:02:33 Stage 1: Architecture Competitions 00:03:52 University of Auckland Business School 00:04:22 Stage 2: Projects: First Major Project – Chatswood Concourse 00:07:42 Architecture Registration 00:11:13 Increased Role in Projects: Ben Chifley Building 00:15:41 Charles Perkins Centre 00:19:04 Increased Role in Architecture Teams 00:22:10 Bunjil Place 00:27:32 Stage 3: Specialising in Facades 00:28:26 King and Phillip Residences 00:31:23 Inner Sydney High School 00:32:38 Stage 4: Specialising in Architecture Competitions 00:37:17 Using Architectural Skills for My Community 00:05:30 Architecture Mentorship My pathway is nothing particularly special, except that I have worked with some great people and great projects along the way. I've really enjoyed documenting this part of my life and preserving memories while they are still fresh.
