Rosemann Kansas City teamed up with AIA Kansas City’s Women in Design Committee to support a “Day of Shadowing” program tailored for local high school students. This initiative offers a firsthand look into the dynamics of working at an architectural and structural engineering firm, providing valuable insights into our design studio’s culture and community.

Our Studio Director Gabe Vogl, led the students on a walking tour of our historical renovation project, the Argyle Lofts. Founder/President Don Rosemann took a few moments from his day to talk about his journey to architecture.

The students had the opportunity to shadow an architect, gaining insight into their daily responsibilities. Beyond shadowing, they collaborated with an architect to construct a model house and create a floor plan.

Overall, the day was fun and we enjoyed hosting the students!
