Looking to showcase your portfolios to your prospective employers? Want to have an easier way to create and upkeep your project showcase online?  I chat with Jacek Urbanowicz, Melbourne-based, design technology specialist and registered architect on why and how our architectural industry can transform the way graduates and mid-career architects create and upkeep their portfolios and allow for equitable ways for firms to hire the right talents. Jacek is also the founder of architecture portfolio platform, tunarch.org, where he aims to establish a easier way to help firms and clients find the right designers through the contents of their work.  

We talked about many topics, including: 

[01:48] - Jacek's journey in architecture and his current work in computational design.  
[13:44] - The main driving force for Jacek for his choice to explore various typologies and methods of design.
[19:50] - Technology will drive architecture design and practice forward (it will be a sink or swim situation for architects, will you adapt or resist?)
[21:32] - How Jacek sees a future way of practicing architecture with data-driven design principles and methodology
[24:05] - How we see the role of the Architect changing in the next 5-10 years
[28:40] - PSA: We need to adapt as Architects.  
[32:00] - What Jacek's architecture portfolio platform Tunarch.org is about and who is it for?
[35:50] - Why did Jacek start Tunarch.org?
[47:21] - Jacek's advice to young architectural designers just starting out.
