How do you take the ideas and commitment of your student portfolio into architectural practice? How can you build a career that reinforces your ideals and aims, rather than compromises them? These two talks, by architects at very different stages of their careers will illustrate ‘how they do sustainable practice’, and the challenges and success they have had in addressing the concerns they had as students through their built projects.

Payments of grants from the RIBA Research Fund are made directly to individuals (practitioners and academics) and not to commercial businesses or to higher education institutions. The Fund does not support course fees, expenses, and subsistence costs for those enrolled in PhD/MPhil or Masters programmes.
