Architect + Entrepreneur Startup Toolkit v2.0

Tools + resources for your entrepreneurial design practice

The to-do list for architecture startups is long. There’s letterhead, logos, business cards, and branding to design; systems to put in place to ensure the brand you’re creating can deliver on its promises. Among all this are questions: how are new clients processed and welcomed? What will you charge? What business structure and revenue model makes the most sense?

All this before you put pen to trace.
