Socially-distant meet-up at Dupont Circle
We had another team talk recently about life and work in times of pandemic. Our colleagues brought up the added stresses we face now that the weather is changing and days are getting shorter. Everyone agreed that it’s too easy to just keep going, but far better to acknowledge and address it directly.
Here are some of our takeaways:
We’ are our greatest asset. By far our greatest project is our studio itself. We’ve worked hard with intention to create a healthy and creative culture, forming bonds that allow us to do good work and to shore each other up.
Our expertise can help us through. It makes sense, after all it’s part of our training as architects to identify challenges and come up with creative solutions.
Our plan includes communication, in-person meet-ups, and virtual mentoring sessions where interns can gather around a Revit model. The image above is a collage of photos from a recent socially-distant meet-up in the park at Dupont Circle.
