  • Abstract:

    In Australia during 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic led to disruptions in architectural workplaces. These disruptions led to project cancellations and the need for many architects to work from home. This paper aims to trace how architects responded to these disruptions and then utilise their responses to propose a model of resilience suitable for architectural firms. What lessons can architects learn from these changes regarding resilience within their profession and workplaces? In a series of industry surveys, the Architects Consulting Association of Australia (ACA) Tracked the pandemic's impact on firms. Five national surveys were undertaken beginning in March 2020. Detailed selected results from the five surveys are presented, and the surveys' design is critiqued. With over 3000 respondents, the surveys represent a comprehensive snapshot of data gathered from architects in Australia. In examining these membership surveys, what constitutes resilience in architectural firms is explored and developed. From these results, firm resilience is reframed, and an integrated model of resilience is developed. This integrated model of Resilience Capital (RC) Extends previous understanding of architecture firms based on limited indicators of psychosocial measures of well-being and professional identity conflicts. The developed model will enable further industry development and further studies of resilience in architectural and other small professional service firms.
