Member Dossiers have been part of Columns since its (print) inception and the popular feature has stuck around since we’ve gone digital. Here are five of Columns most recent Dossiers and their advice for young architects to inspire you at the start of 2019.

Larry’s advice to young architects: “Choose your own mentors. Don’t settle for an “arranged marriage” – decide who you want to learn from and pitch them on the mutual value of the relationship. I am constantly tapping new and old voices to teach me and challenge me.”
