For Medi Korasani, director of the Melbourne-based DW Architects & Interiors, design has been a calling. Born into a family of architects, he grew up flipping through blueprints the way other children look at colouring books. When Korasani was a boy, his father taught him the basic tricks of the trade and forced him to think critically about finding solutions.
“You know when people ask their kids to stand in the corner when they’re naughty? I would be asked to resolve a floor plan,” Korasani says with a laugh. “It was my father’s dream for me to become an architect and take over his company.”
