Architectural Designer Couples Show Benefits Of Two Working Minds Achieving The Same Goal

Two architectural designer couples show the effectiveness of two individuals helping each other achieve a certain goal. They say two in harmony surpasses one in perfection.

That statement also holds true when it comes to creating the perfect architectural plan. According to SeacoastOnline, an architectural designer couple represents the "yin and yang" of business partnership.

Husband and wife duo Brandon Holben and Elisa Winter help each other out in coming up with an architectural design. The two work independently on specific roles but both hope to achieve the same goal.

Winter takes care of the design, while Holben handles the architecture part. Although having a spouse for a business partner might sound daunting for some, but for the Holben's, it's a "positive" experience.

The Winter-Holben architecture + design owners shared that having a spouse as a business partner has its perks. One of these architectural designer couple perks is covering up for each other when it comes to family needs.

The partnership extends beyond business as it also comes down to taking care of the kids while one of couple works. This creates convenience for an architectural designer couple, as being in that field of work usually means being very busy.

Of course, Holben and Winter isn't the only architectural designer couples who are enjoying success. According to NewYorkTimes, another architect couple has made a name for themselves in Mississippi.

Architects Roy Decker and Marie Duvall have formed Duvall-Decker almost 20 years ago. The architectural design couple has focused on building better places for the less fortunate in their community.

Duvall said that she's prefers to hire young architects who has goals in helping their local community. The source revealed that the Duvall-Decker architectural designer couple managed to build low-cost affordable housing for poverty-filled areas. As a result, the architectural firm was able to "resuscitate" a main street.
