Lari shares her resolute mission, wherein architecture transcends its conventional boundaries and becomes a potent tool for uplifting communities, with a special emphasis on empowering women. Throughout the discussion, Lari also emphasises the pivotal role architects play in championing causes they passionately believe in, advocating for designs that prioritise the well-being of people over conventional commissions.
