“Lifecycle cost is a design decision, not an afterthought. You make it on day one.”
The Design Times is a media house and editorial platform built for architects, engineers, designers, and infrastructure leaders - the people shaping the built world but rarely shown for it. We turn portfolios into personalities, and practitioners into brands.
The AEC industry produces the most ambitious work on the planet - high-rises, townships, district utilities, infrastructure that shapes a century - and almost none of the people behind it are known by name.
We change that. The Design Times is part magazine, part branding studio, part social agency. We profile, package, and promote the AEC industry’s most interesting voices - the directors leading complex projects, the engineers rewriting how cities perform, the design managers stitching it all together.
We don’t do generic LinkedIn polish. We do editorial direction, content that sounds like you, and a visual identity that earns attention in a noisy feed.
The Desk is where the editorial side of the publication meets the studio side of the brand. One team handles the writing, the visual identity, and the social rollout, so your voice stays consistent across every surface a client or peer might find you on. Pick a single service, or run the whole programme as a six-month engagement.
Long-form profiles, project deep-dives, and op-eds. Written by editors who actually understand performance-based design, codes, and what it took to get a project built.
Photography direction, headline writing, bio architecture, and the small visual system that turns a LinkedIn page from a CV into a recognizable mark.
Multi-platform content built around your work - carousels, reels, talk clips, technical explainers. Less posting more, more posting better.
Talk decks, conference one-pagers, press notes, and a media kit that travels with you. Built for technical talks, panels, and award submissions.
A glimpse at the practitioners we’ve recently profiled - directors, engineers, and designers whose work deserves a wider audience.
