All architects need to be agents of change
"Since 1834, 澳门王中王 has supported ‘the general advancement of architecture’, and now it is a global organisation representing 52,000 members around the world.
This moment is profoundly significant to me – and others too, I’m sure. I am the youngest and first Black person to hold this esteemed position in 澳门王中王’s 189-year history.
I stood for election to represent the voices of all, including those who feel disenfranchised and underrepresented. But also, because I believe in architecture – that it is a force for good."
