What do two architects do after working at one of the most elite firms in the world? In this episode, Alex Yuen and Minkoo Kang share how their time at OMA shaped their view of architecture—and why they chose a very different path. They now work at the intersection of design, development, and teaching.
But they didn't just trade desks—they rewired the way they think about value, money, and impact. If you've ever felt stuck between being a visionary and being profitable, this episode speaks directly to you. You'll hear how these two navigated burnout, risk, and reinvention to reclaim creative and financial power.
Whether you're still chasing design awards or itching to build your own thing, what Alex and Minkoo reveal will shift how you see your role as an architect.
- The hidden cost every architect pays—but rarely talks about
- How to unlock design freedom without pitching or pandering
- Why "good design" might be the least important part of your project
