It is also very relevant to the topic of how architects identify themselves.©️Talk Architecture 2023, Author: Naziaty Mohd Yaacob.  Photo credit Image from the Paradox design thesis cohort 2018-19 exhibition.Support the showDo subscribe for premium content and special features which will help to support and sustain Talk Architecture podcast on a more in-depth explanation on design thesis and processes.
