VOL. 7—PROFIT Session Recording

Wednesday, July 22 | 6 PM

Vol. 7 Profit is co-hosted by architect and FASF President Anthony Guida and Mark Dytham, the co-founder of PechaKucha and Klein Dytham Architect. Our presenters—ranging from heritage developer to nectar nomad, drystone mason, nonprofit architecture firm, manufacturer, urban planner, and creative director—share how they have invested and reaped the rewards. They challenge the current definition of profit and argue its significance, reframing the paradigm of wealth.
