The Will Bruder Conversation

In this special episode, we were fortunate to capture another candid conversation between Will Bruder, FAIA, and two passionate architecture students from The Design School at Arizona State University—Sophie Apropos-Kardos the co-president of the ASU AIAS chapter and Katie Le the president of the ASU USGBC. Throughout the discussion, Will shares his perspectives on a wide range of topics including design drivers, designing great architecture within budget, and how he listened to the context, program, client and all involved to develop his designs. Some of his personal reflections on the profession are timely and poignant. We extend our gratitude to the leadership at The Design School—Paola Sanguinetti, Claudio Vekstein, and Abigail Hoover—for their support in making this event possible. Special thanks also to Professor Marc Neveu for organizing this special event.
