How Architects Can Help Clients Form their Forever Home

 

MarketScale producer Taylor Bagley met up with notable Chicago-area designer Taryn Lund at this year’s Chicago Build Expo. Lund has built a reputation in the custom residential architecture world, working with clients to bring their ideal dream home to life. Through her years of experience she has developed a variety of “compatibility” tests and activities that she assigns her clients. These help her see projects through her clients’ eyes and assess any potential gaps in feasibility or practicality.

After graduating, Lund began her career and gained experience in design, construction and project management among other disciplines.
