I help small, design focussed architects practices to better manage their workload so that they can spend more time doing what they enjoy

I have finally decided to put my money where my mouth is build a short online course outlining my SketchUp workflow.

Know anyone that needs remote help getting Design Development or Construction Documentation finished? Why not hire an experienced & knowledgeable Freelance Architect? https://t.co/v9gpPLzrbg #freelancearchitect #AutoCAD #SketchUp #remotework

#ArchiTeamConference #Makingaliving19 @ArchiteamCo_Op what a great day! Excellent speakers and engaging conversation with interesting people. When’s the next one?!

[Mark Gregory - smudgeable design @smudgeable]

Great talk and useful productivity hacks from Justin Kabbani @HardhatDigital

[Mark Gregory - smudgeable design @smudgeable]

Really enjoying the speakers from outside the industry today. Great insight and food for though in running small, creative business #Makingaliving19 #ArchiTeamConference19

How about an ArchiTeam fee and profitability survey like the RIBA do annually in the UK? Let’s start the conversation @peterraisbeck @ArchiteamCo_Op #Makingaliving19

[Sarah - Value Architects Group @Architectrix]

Says @peterraisbeck the "split" between design and business is a false one. It just needs better integration. (that's the hard part) #Makingaliving19

[Mark Gregory - smudgeable design @smudgeable]

We are very devoted to our craft and sometimes that can be destructive. We need to get better at looking after ourselves and our staff. @peterraisbeck #Makingaliving19 #ArchiTeamConference

From @FloraArchitect: “Manchester has established the social value requirement for government projects at 30% of their decision making. Which would be great if anyone knew what social value is.” Has anyone tried to define this in Australia? Ping @timhorton_ #MakingALiving19

[Lunchbox Architect @LunchboxArch]

Lack of business skills leaves architects vulnerable and weakens the profession as a whole. #Makingaliving19

Can we be both successful architects and successful parents? Does it have to be a conflict? Mat Hinds #MakingaLiving19 #architeam19

What does it take to be a really great small business in Australia? Caring about and taking care of people #MakingaLiving19 #ArchiTeamConference

[Mark Gregory - smudgeable design @smudgeable]

The immense feeling of making something that others enjoy and that enriches thier lives. Architecture and Cookery is about the consumer not the creator #MakingaLiving19 #architeamconference

[Mark Gregory - smudgeable design @smudgeable]

So many interesting correlations between cooking and architecture. Making something from nothing and creative combination of ‘ingredients’ #MakingaLiving19 #architeam19

@MihalySlocombe @FloraArchitect How might ArchiTeam go about forming a research in practice group similar to the research practice leads group?

[Mihaly Slocombe @MihalySlocombe]

From @FloraArchitect: “Be focussed. Research has shown that architects make more money when they have a focussed area of expertise.# #MakingaLiving19

[Mark Gregory - smudgeable design @smudgeable]

‘Stay focussed and have a clear area of expertise’ - @FloraArchitect #MakingaLiving19 #ArchiTeamConference the importance of time management and business planning in Architect’s practice

[Mark Gregory - smudgeable design @smudgeable]

What’s the best source of architectural knowledge? Not your mate at the next desk or google #makingaliving2019 #architeamconference https://t.co/GUQsWAWClJ
