2025 Fall Preview: Ed Wojcik, Ed Wojcik Architect Ltd.

What challenges or opportunities do you anticipate for your clients as the market heads into Q4? As Q4 begins, clients face a market that’s cautious yet full of potential. Rising construction costs and complex timelines are driving teams to be more agile and strategic. But this challenge brings opportunity. Clients are thinking long-term, seeking spaces that serve an enduring purpose. There’s growing interest in adaptive reuse and legacy-driven design.

What are you most excited about for the future of your sector? What excites me most about the future of architecture is the fusion of design, science, and social impact. Buildings are evolving from passive shelters to active contributors that store energy, foster inclusion, and reflect community values. MIT’s carbon-cement supercapacitors hint at a regenerative future where concrete doubles as energy storage. And clients are embracing legacy-driven design. Spaces that honor history, adapt with purpose, and serve for generations.
