Parametricism & The Future of Architecture

On this episode, we speak to Ratlab Studio founder & computational designer Sushant Verma who has traversed many obstacles in life to reach where he is at right now.

This two-part series is jam-packed with a lot of useful information that will illuminate your views on architecture and the various new aspects surrounding it such as parametricism and computational design.

So tune in to this fascinating talk I had with Sushant as he takes us on his long Architectural Journey to success and the many stories that bound it.

There are lots more to come in the second-part of this two-part series where we dwell into why Sushant quit one of the best architectural firms after a year to running a successful firm called Rat-Lab studio.
