Good morning, everyone. I am Stephen Drew from the Architecture Social. And today I am joined by a very special guest David Drews, who I've known for a few years. David Drews, who is design director now at Allied London. David. Hello. How are you? Hi Steven. How you doing? I'm alright. It's a bit of a crazy week, isn't it?
Good thing we're gonna be on audio 'cause I wouldn't want to see the viewers to see my hair right now, . But other than that, I mean it's professional hours. I can see you are in the office right now, is that correct? Yes. Yeah. Fantastic. The show goes on, obviously complying with all safety requirements and everything, but we are, we're in a new world.
