I have general categories of questions, like legal documentation needed and what's missing, design related questions, general process (where I would explain who does what and when, will talk about it in the end even without being asked). Every time its a little different reacting to the type of a client, but its very important to have a structure for your discussion because it gives You more confidence and you are always in control of conversation. Design related questions are very important, its the time where You can get a little bit more personal and most clients decide whether You are a good fit for them. Sometimes clients bring examples of other projects that they like and if You are able to tell its cons and pros in relation to clients wishes and exact location in a few minutes You are in a good position. If you run out of design questions try to show some previous works of Yours that are somewhat similar to what client wants and that could lead to a wider discussion looking at different choices and why that would or would fit to your new potential clients. Good luck!
This is a great video every young architect or architecture student should want to watch.👌
Thanks for sharing, mate
thanks you so much for these golden tips
PLEASE change the background music, it‘s completely unfitting and distracting
Yep I agree XD
Didn’t bother me till I read your comment 🥴

Can u send a set of design related questions to ask to clients in first meetings
Just try to ask in a relaxed way.. don't look too technical inquiry. The formal briefing will come afterwards
