About Black Spectacles
Black Spectacles helps educate and inspire architects around the world to thrive in their career. Born out of feeling a lack of guidance in the early stages of architectural education and career, Teer sought to ensure other architects would have the influence and connections that he didn’t. Black Spectacles was created to provide young professionals with the inside track to propel them to become resources and mentors for the next generation of architects.
