“Most of us have an artsy side that we have not discovered yet. I was really timid to show my drawings to my father when I was younger because my father is an architect and he was also a cartoonist in the 80s.” - Ahmad Hakym
In this podcast episode, Hakym shares personal stories such as his motivations in architecture, how Hakym’s upbringing influences his love for art and more. Hakym talks about KL Sketchnation and gives advice to fresh graduates who aspire to be an architect.
