Another successful A+W NZ + Architectus Speed Mentoring event is behind us!

Yesterday we hosted another edition of our Speed Mentoring session, and the turnout was fantastic. It was wonderful to see so many young professionals connecting with experienced architects, asking questions, sharing ideas, and gaining valuable career advice.

A huge thank you to all of our mentors for generously giving their time and supporting those at the beginning of their professional journey.

Special thanks to Architectus for collaborating with us on this event and for generously hosting the evening in their office.

Thank you to everyone who joined us-we can’t wait to see you at the next Speed Mentoring event! 🙌

A heartfelt thank you to University of Auckland for hosting tonight’s Small Practices lecture, and to our inspiring presenters Kate Rogan, Eva Nash, and Lynda Simmons for sharing your work, experiences, and insights. 🏛️💛

Thank you also to our event sponsor GIB® for supporting the lecture, and to everyone who joined us 👏

It was a real pleasure to attend and enjoy a sneak peek into a range of thoughtful and inspiring projects, hear about different design approaches, and reflect on the honest conversations around balancing architectural practice with parenthood. Those personal insights reminded us that great architecture is shaped not only by design thinking, but also by the people behind it.

Thank you again for sharing your knowledge, generosity, and stories! 🌿✨
