T R A J E C T O R I E S  TALK SERIES | THURSDAYS from 6PM GMT

A new series of talks inviting architecture graduates to reflect on their time as students and their exciting next steps. Each week two speakers will explore personal creative aspirations, ideas and agendas, and present the somewhat unexpected trajectories of their early careers. Looking forward to seeing you all there! 

Cassie studied her Part 1 at the University of Westminster with a semester abroad at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. Whilst studying her BA, she worked with the architectural group CAUKIN Studio on designing and building community projects in Fiji as both a participant and project leader, where she gained hands-on experience in local timber construction. After graduating Cassie went on to work at dRMM Architects for a year before joining CAUKIN Studio full-time in January 2021.  She is now working on developing international humanitarian projects as well as UK-based projects with a focus on social impact. 

Robert completed his MArch and BSc Architecture degrees in the Bartlett School of Architecture, which culminated in designing spatial interfaces for inclusive participatory processes, to facilitate meaningful community-led design outcomes. During his studies and after having graduated Robert co-directs the Aldea Foundation in Chile, working with an interdisciplinary team to design architectural and public space interventions, organise public city-wide architecture festivals and run educational workshops for young people.
