COFFEE WITH AN ARCHITECT | Neil Middleton
Wednesday 10th November
13:00-14:00
ONLINE | ZOOM
Have you ever wondered what its actually like to work in architectural practice? Join the Edinburgh Architectural Association’s free event for the opportunity to gain an understanding of the nitty gritty of running projects, being part of a design team and the everyday life of a practicing architect.
The discussions will aim to delve into the details of the project process; planning and building warrant stages; construction drawings, design considerations and problem solving. Each session will be hosted by two members of the Edinburgh Architectural Association who will be joined by an Edinburgh-based architect as they informally discuss their work over a lunchtime coffee.
Unlike most online events, your questions won’t exclusively be saved for a Q&A session at the end. All participants are welcome to engage and guide the discussion. Although these events don’t require any attendee participation, we would like to actively encourage attendees to turn their cameras on throughout the event and engage in the discussions. You will have the opportunity to unmute and ask your own questions at different points throughout the event, or simply type questions into the chat box for our co-hosts to read out on your behalf.
Neil Middleton is an architect based in Edinburgh and has been a sole practitioner since November 2020. He is currently working with domestic clients on extension projects as well as a commercial fit out project within a listed building in Glasgow. Prior to establishing his practice, he worked for 3DReid and Scott Brownrigg in Edinburgh, and for a time with Monadnock in Rotterdam.
Please note that this event is exclusively for ESALA undergraduate students.
