Greetings, A:R Nation! I hope that this episode finds you well. I'm super excited to share this episode with you. I think it's overflowing with inspiration and creativity. I have my friend and colleague, Lara Apelian, founder of Lara Apelian Studios here in NYC. Lara is an architect. She sees beauty, and thoughtfulness, and stories in what we see as just buildings and spaces. In this episode, she shares with us her journey in professional architecture, how she didn't even know it was a thing in college to now running her own design studio. Lara reveals to us the relevancy and importance of architecture in our world, especially from a resource-conscious lens. She also gives us some tips and insight to spot the hidden beauty and joy both in our personal spaces, as well as in the spaces we share and call public. Go outside and "look up!" This is the Adulthood: Revisited Podcast. Connect with Lara Apelian: Lara Apelian Studios IG: @laraapelianstudio
