The founder of award-winning practice, John McAslan + Partners, was in Australia again to mark the opening of Sydney Metro. We were fortunate enough not only to nab John for an interview, but in fact a live-audience one – recorded with a gathering of dozens of architecture enthusiasts at The Beacham Hotel in Darlinghurst. John shared anecdotes from his career, thoughts on Sydney Metro, and stories from projects around the world including places like Haiti.
