A young and ambitious architect who took a leap of faith, diving into the business of running my architectural design studio just one year after graduation in 2018. Over the past five years, I have been through a brutal grind, handling multiple tasks simultaneously.
As a young entrepreneur, I have worn many hats, effectively juggling roles that would typically require at least five people. I have been a cleaner, a marketer, a draftsman, an accountant, and ultimately the lead architect here at my office. This challenging journey has significantly honed my skills and knowledge, equipping me to take on any project with confidence and expertise.
Talha Shahid Architects & Associates, Islamabad, PK, Lead Architect
Founded my own architectural design studio in July 2019. Since then, I have been single-handedly managing my office.
With no family background in the field of architecture or construction, it was a very tough decision to start my own office but with constant hard work and resilience, I managed to operate the office even in the toughest of times especially COVID-19.
I believe that remaining positive all the time is the demand of this profession and I am tackling all of the challenges head-on.

Worked as Design Architect for 6 Months.
Worked directly under a senior architect who mentored me and enabled me to deal with clients on different projects.
In that short span, I gained a lot of confidence that helped in the decision to start my own design office.
