Media often talks and celebrates those who have transitioned into architecture, but rarely transitioned out of architecture. I suppose it's quite a daunting move - and one that we don't talk about often. Thankfully, Elliott is here to share his thoughts on his experience of his transition from Architecture to Building Design. What was it like? Were there any pressures? Come and sit with us as we laugh through some ups and downs and debate on which one is better for those who are torn between the two!
*This will be a two-part series featuring two different guests - Elliott, who has transitioned out of architecture school into building design and Steve - who transitioned into architecture from fine arts and landscape design (I need to confirm this). These moves are never easy, but they are important conversations that we don’t often discuss or applaud.

About Elliott Kan
A self-professed introvert whose current goal is to cultivate mindfulness and establish an anti-fragile mindset. Started my life in Architecture & Building Design, and now hoping to build things on the web! I hope to consolidate the experience I’ve gained and express them through a different medium.
I love to seek things that challenge me - from training for marathons, rock climbing or taking the leap into a new career!
The 2 current quotes that are propelling me forward are “I can accept the consequences of failure, but not the consequences of regret.” and “You are one decision away from changing your life forever.”
My goal is to retire my mum without losing my soul in the process!
About Season 4// Hero Phenomena
Hero Phenomena is dedicated to the paradigm shift experienced during my architecture studies - as well as a tribute to the core essays in which this blog was primarily built on. Season 4 of Archemist Podcast will be a continuation and expansion on the thoughts and essays written throughout the past four years of written entries and my architecture studies. Be prepared for a symphony of discourses that can either reassures or confronts interlaced with tones of idealism, cynicism, optimism, and self-doubt as that’s what growing up is about - messy but wonderful all at once.
