Prague – The publishing house ARCHIZOOM BOOKS is releasing a unique publication, Architect in Practice, which comprehensively maps all aspects of the successful operation of an architectural office for the first time on the Czech market. The book was prepared by architect Evžen Dub and journalist Radek Váňa, authors with over twenty years of experience in the field.
The publication Architect in Practice represents the first comprehensive overview of everything involved in the work of an architect on the Czech market. The authors, with their detailed knowledge of the environment, describe the practical aspects and professional skills that a successful architect must master – from establishing an office to daily management to marketing and communication with clients.
"For a long time, we felt the absence of a quality practical guide for architects that would cover all areas of business in this profession. Our book aims to fill this gap and provide colleagues with concrete tools for successful operation," says co-author Radek Váňa.
Content of the Book
The book, spanning 168 pages, covers key areas:
The profession and job description of the architect, education, and qualifications
Establishment and management of an architectural office
Business planning, administration, and the use of technology
Financial management and proper project management
Communication with clients and coordination with other professions
Marketing and PR in architecture
Architect in Practice
The book is followed by the online platform Architect in Practice, which will offer a podcast of the same name featuring Czech architects, discussion forums, and webinars. The academy will become a networking platform with industry content and access to professional tools.
"The online academy will enable continuous education and connection of professionals from across the Czech Republic. We want to create an active community that will share experiences and address current challenges in the profession," adds architect Evžen Dub. The book will be launched on September 8, 2025, in Prague, together with the second, revised edition of the book Marketing and PR in Architecture, which was prepared by Radek Váňa two years ago.
