To be or not to be: generalist versus specialist in A+D. Our 30UNDER30 host and BVN associate Claire Oh delves into the pros and cons of finding a singular calling and becoming a specialist in architecture and interior design, or being a generalist and adding multiple strings to your bow. 

Her esteemed industry guests share their experiences to help young professionals navigate the best ways forward. Guests include COX director Brooke Lloyd, SJB co-lead of interiors Charlotte Wilson, and Rothelowman Strategic Partnerships Conrad Lowry.

In part one, they discuss the different avenues of specialisation in A+D, the spectrum of opportunities afforded by big firms versus solo practice, the early international experiences that widened their horizons and lingering fears of being pigeon-holed.
